Toronto Blue Jays’ Fans Still Have Reason To Believe

The trading deadline has passed and fortunately for many Blue Jays fans, their franchise player remains with the ball club. Roy Halladay was the center of all trade deadline speculation, but JP Ricciardi was unable to find that “wow” deal that would have forced his hand into dealing his ace. I must admit, I was one of those fans that believed that trading Halladay was the only way for the franchise to move forward, but after reviewing some of the progress and promise that some players are showing this year, it may be a little premature to say that the franchise is in need of an overhaul. In this slide show, I will examine players and people who are key pieces for the Blue Jays moving forward this year and for the upcoming decade. Hopefully this presentation can rekindle some hope that seems to have been lost with all the negativity over the last couple of months.
