Why??!! It was the Jays who decided not to offer him a new contract.
Dont blame Romano, its not his fault.

Romano non-tendered by Toronto, becomes a free agent

TORONTO -- Jordan Romano, the Canadian closer with 105 career saves, has been non-tendered by the Blue Jays. The beloved right-hander out of Markham, Ontario, has been with the Blue Jays organization for a decade. It has been a winding road for Romano, who was once a starter and even

I know. Comment was meant to be a joke. Plus, Romano threw a pitch that Kirk hit a HR off of so im not complaining.

Team is playing really good ball except for Bowden Francis.
They didn't have any logical solutions for him today, but with 2 days off over the next 8 days, he won't get another start with the Jays for a long time as they will have a few weeks to figure out a replacement.

One of a handful of prospects coming in a couple of years.

He's a 25 year old in Double A who had an ERA of about 5.00 before the game. He is a minor league filler who had a career game. Perhaps he is better than Bowden Francis right now but that is a low bar passed by many.. They will go to Adam Macko first, and then I assume make a trade at the deadline if hanging around still.

We need pitching and we apparently have some decent prospects in lower leagues (Single A), but they won't be ready this year or probably next either.

These two were bumped up from Dunedin to Vancouver a few weeks ago.
I've seen a bunch of Yesavage highlights, he's the real deal.

Yep he seems like the real thing. He's not making it this year, but the way he is going he could be up at some point next year. Hope he doesn't hit the surgical knife at any point like our other prospects in recent years.

We have just had some real bad luck with A grade pitching prospects this decade with injuries or decline -- Nate Pearson, Ricky Tiedeman, Jake Bloss, Alek Manoah (after a great year though).

Francis needs to be Buffalo bound. His fastball has no life on it this year!

I think (but I could be wrong), that he has no minor league options left. Wasn't able to find anything definitive.

Which makes demoting him a tough call for the Jays, because as a minimum contract and given his performance last year, he would certainly be claimed off waivers by somebody.

I suppose the best answer is to bury him in long relief, and work on the sidelines. Or perhaps get an "injury", and then do some injury rehab.

Keegan Matheson was on TSN Overdrive on Monday afternoon and didn't mention that the Jays were out of options regarding Francis. In fact, he stated his opinion that Francis should remain a starter whether it's with the Jays or with the Bisons. He feels Francis starting for the Bisons is better than Francis being in the bullpen with the Jays. I tried to attach a link to the interview.

My play Up Me Kilt Kirk, was only staged once.

Our Capitan will never face such indignity.

That's surprising I didn't expect this coming into this season. I guess the league figured him out. Now it's his turn to outsmart them again. Hopefully he's capable of that. For some reason, those tattoos on his hands make him look so hittable now lol I'm not sure why that is exactly.
