The new Blue Jays logo is awesome. Really classy. The old one wasn’t terrible, but it wasn’t as good as the new one. After a day walking around New York City on Saturday, I will never see the old Toronto logo in the same eyes ever again. I am very interested in street art, graffiti and how different groups take popular symbols and put a twist on them. I was walking down Sixth Ave on Saturday (South of 16th Street) and saw a sticker for the New York City Green Jays on a cross walk post. You can see the logo on their facebook page. The New York Green Jays, as they describe themselves are a group that celebrates the diversity of art in New York City, and their logo recreation is clever, timely, and represents their youth movement. I just have a feeling the Toronto Blue Jays wouldn’t be too thrilled about it. Tweet

An Early Look a the 2012 Blue Jays Offense - ZIPS Projections

I've heard a lot of people complain this offseason that the Toronto Blue Jays didn't do enough to improve their team for 2012. Of course, these people tend to be those who believe the Jays should have thrown $300M at Pujols, $250M at Fielder, and $100M at Buerhle, but do they have a point that, on the whole, the Jays have stagnated to a detrimental degree? The imrpovements...

Where the Jays Stand – Starting Rotation

Remember back in the fall when I was doing a weekly positional breakdown of the Jays as baseball traipsed through its eventful off-season and into the spring? Well, I went across to diamond to every fielding position off the mound – and little has changed since then. At catcher, former Angel Jeff Mathis will take over the role as J.P. Arencibia’s back-up that was vacated by Tampa...

Player Profile #75: Ricky Romero | SP | TOR

If Jeremy Hellickson is the winner of the 2011 Pitch Who Best Outperformed Their Peripherals Award, then Ricky Romero is definitely the runner up. Last season, Romero’s 1.28-run gap between his ERA and FIP was the second largest in baseball (where the ERA was lower) behind only Hellickson. Romero ranked 60th on the season and we’re ranking him at 75, so clearly we think...
