2011 Draft- Two boxes- 3x more blue than red
Held off buying any Draft until this past weekend when I had to hit the store for some supplies. Got a good deal on two boxes and glad I did. Hit 11 Refractors and the following: And the other Blue: Everything's available. Have never graded a card before but the Bauer looks perfect...- braden

The Montreal Canadiens paid tribute to Gary Carter
Prior to the Habs/Devils game. Apparently NBC cut away to go to commercials but the CBC up here showed it. The Habs do tributes better than anyone. http://deadspin.com/5886411/heres-the-canadiens-gary-carter-tribute-that-didnt-air-in-the-united-states -

Just sold the only rainbow I've ever completed
I've been drastically reducing my collection over the past few months and I took the Free Listing Day as an opportunity to list a few things I didn't think would sell but at a price I'd be fine with. Well, one of them did. My 2007 Bowman Chrome Aaron Hill rainbow was sniped. I must admit, I had... -

Luke Scott to Tampa
The state of Florida, somehow, just got dumber (and more racist). One year, plus an option. -

Jays buy Leafs and Raptors
Well, sorta. Rogers (Jays' owner) just teamed up with BCE to purchase 80% of Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment from the Ontario Teacher's Pension Plan for $1.3 Billion. So, my wife no longer owns the Leafs. MLSE owns the Leafs, Raptors, Toronto FC (MLS), Marlies (Leafs AHL affiliate), Air... -

What's up with the BDP retail auto parallels?
I've seen Blues #'d to 199 and 500. Is there a difference I'm missing? Can someone run down the parallel rainbow for retail autos? -

Can someone in the US help me out with an auction? ends 15..
Hey all, There's an auction ending in 15 minutes that doesn't ship to Canada and won't budge on that. If someone's willing to bid (and hopefully win) and then ship to me after they receive, I'll kick something their way. I've got Paypal ready to go to cover it. If someone's able, I'll PM them... -

Brian Matusz's ERA is 10.68
The only thing keeping him from having the worst season ever is he probably won't reach 50 IP. Who owns that honour, you may ask? Well, Roy Halladay in 2000. Tons of similarities between the struggles, actually. The Jays righted Halladay's ship by sending him all the way down to A-ball and... -

Ah, Kevin Gregg
I hated watching Gregg close for the Jays last year. Hated it. I was shocked when he signed a 2/$10MM deal in the off-season (but not at all shocked that it was the Orioles). Anyway, Jays were down by 1 in the 9th today and imagine my disappointment when Clay Repada came back out for the bottom... -

Welcome back, Dustin McGowan
It was July of 2008 (38 months ago) when Dustin McGowan last pitched in the Majors. At the time he was one of the top young starters in the game. Keith Law says that the best stuff he has ever seen was McGowan at Fenway in April of 2008. Since then McGowan has undergone two shoulder surgeries... -

Zach Stewart perfect through 6
Well this came out of nowhere. 65 pitches through six and with the horrific lineup the Twins have trotted out tonight, there's a real shot at perfection. -

What in the world happened to Brian Matusz?
Over the final two months of 2010, Matusz allowed 15 runs in 62 innings with 52 K's and just 16 BBs. He was 7-1 over that time. Everyone, including me, seemed to think he was poised to become a top starter in 2011. Instead he has quite possibly been the worst starter in baseball. With today's... -

My goodness Red Sox/Yankees games are unbearable
Are they simply unable to play a nine inning game in under four hours? It's excruciating. The only redeeming factor is seeing John Lackey openly sell his teammates out for not making plays. That never gets old. -

Something quirky about tonight's D'Backs infield
The Diamondbacks lineup tonight features an infield of Lyle Overbay, Aaron Hill, John McDonald, and Ryan Roberts. That infield started together on May 27, 2007. For the Blue Jays. That can't have happened many times. Leatherman? -

Darin Mastroianni MLB debut tonight
Not much of a prospect but I know he's got a couple of big fans on this board. The Maestro is playing CF and batting 9th for the Jays tonight. It took a weird series of events to get him on the roster: a trade involving two 25-man guys, the acquired player not having his passport with him and... -

Brett Lawrie is 4th among AL Rookies in WAR; in 26 games
Through 13 games (50 PA), Lawrie has already managed to put up a 1.0 WAR. For the non seamheads, here's what he's done: .378/.440/.711 with 3 HR and 10 RBI. He also has a 5:8 BB:K. Obviously this won't continue but I've been amazed at what I've seen out of him. He's already the second most... -

Juan Rivera DFA, Snider recalled
Nix yesterday, Rivera today! Our long national nightmare is coming to a close. Thank goodness. I love that the Jays acquired Rivera, because it saved $80MM but the guy was atrocious and clearly unhappy. Snider was performing well in AAA before sustaining a concussion but he's healthy again and... -

MLB 7/3
Nice to see the Jays finally grab one against the Phils after two great and close games. Cliff Lee allowed one run in June. Then in the 8th inning today, four against four batters: Thames HR (3) Bautista HR (27) Lind single Encarnacion HR (6) Elsewhere, Andrew McCutchen with a 3-for-4 day. I... -

Roy Halladay smiles!
Not sure if it's getting any play south of the border but Doc's return home this weekend is a huge story here. You don't see Halladay smile all that often but he was beaming when he delivered the line-up card yesterday: http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?content_id=16468915 The big story today...
