RULE 5 DRAFT

The Blue Jays took Dedgar Jimenez from the Red Sox organization.
He is a pitcher with good potential to be a starter. He is going to be given a shot to make the rotation.

We were the only team that took anybody.

FINALLY...

BARRY BONDS WAS ELECTED TO THE HALL OF FAME!

Roger Clemens has one more shot but was right there, at 74%, as was Mike Mussina.

Jim Thome got 71.5%

Vladimir Guerrero and Todd Helton were both above 60%

The Owner just lowered my budget. I already have no money and am way in the hole.

It is almost like he blames me for my own financial mismanagement!

Ahem.

Here is the list of players and amount that I am paying this year for them not to play for the Blue Jays...

Robinson Cano - $24m - Marlins
Shelby Miller - $18.6m - Royals
Jose Ramirez - $9.6m - Athletics
Justin Upton - $7.7m - Mets
Carlos Gomez - $6.6m - Giants
Kenley Jansen - $3.6m - Nationals
Henderson Alvarez - $2.8m - Phillies

My attempt to build a team around Mike Trout has completely and utterly failed.

Does it sound like I am giving up?

Hell no! See you in the 2021 thread!
