lol every interview I see him in an interview and whenever the interviewer comments on the great talent of the starting rotation or the team in general, Max Scherzer always says something like "I've been on some great teams in the past and I've been on some great starting rotations" almost as to say shut up Toronto media dont over play this, you haven't won anything. Cool your jets!
HaHa!!! This is Mad Max's way of telling the Jays coaching staff "I'm not going to make pitching rotation decisions easy for you this year".
.... oh God, the nightmare of JP Ricciardi... literally the nightmare. The wasted years of Roy Haliday and Carlos Delgado ... letting Delgado walk, not building a winner around him. Even though Gord Ash played a role in that as well. Drafting Vernon Wells, instead of Tulo. It goes on and on… Surprisingly, he's only 66 years old. That feels like a lifetime ago.
Ricky Romero was drafted over Tulo by guess who. It wasn't Gord Ash. J.P. thought they were set at short with Russ Adams. J.P. also let Chris Carpenter walk for nothing when they could've kept him at a low cost. Ash did pretty well with drafting. Wells Hudson Haliday and Carpenter. He also signed Roger Clemens. Now when it came to making trades he was only slightly better than Brad Treliving.
Let's also acknowledge Ash had to work under abyssmal ownership(Interbrew SA) who didn't give a shit about the Jays. Interbrew purchased Labatt's and the Blue Jays just happened to be part of the deal. Ash's whole tenure was unfortunately under Interbrew.
So you're saying injuries have hit our starting rotation already. That's why they say you can never have enough pitching.
Yeah, this came about in a very peculiar way. José Berrios feels fine he says, and while he was trying to put some kind of insurance on his arm so he can pitch for Puerto Rico, they spotted elbow inflammation.
