Afterthoughts: McGowan, Snider, Lind, etc.
I almost titled this post "the last word" but that would have been ridiculously optimistic, right? Anyway, there's enough Jays news in recent days that it's a dereliction of duty to not comment on it.Item: Dustin McGowan nursing minor injury, signed to extension.

The Toronto Blue Jays have just extended injury prone starter Dustin McGowan to a long term extension. The deal is worth $3 million over the next two seasons, followed by a $4M club option for 2015.
