I can’t help but being
irritated and angry that the Jays are not in the playoffs again. It has now been about 20 years since they
have made it to the playoffs.
The Jays in the last couple
of years have put together a team that is good enough to win- talent wise. I just think that what they are missing is
the heart and passion in the players to win it! I just hope that the younger guys that we
have been seeing shed a new life to the Jays future. As well, the Jays have drafted well and we
could see that in the way the young players that have been called up
lately. The future at least looks bright
for the Jays.
We have Marcus Stroman. This year he has come in and exceeded expectations
and has contributed to the Jays pitching staff.
He has provided great starting pitching and a welcome positive attitude.
Then we have Aaron
Sanchez. He has rocketed through the
Minor league system and now that he is in the MLB, he hasn’t wasted a single
opportunity to show his stuff. He has
been lights out since he has been called up.
I look forward to seeing the
future of Mississauga’s own Dalton Pompey.
He looks impressive in his couple of weeks with the Jays. I hope he continues to improve during the off-season. Anthony Gose, Ryan Goins and Kevin Pillar all
struggled last year but this year they have contributed and were a major part
in the Jays success when they were in first place earlier in the season.
I can’t wait to see how all
the young players develop further and how they will contribute to the Jays success.
Maybe with this fresh group of young players, there will be a better attitude
in the dugout, which will result in better performances. Hopefully next year, with all their top
prospects along with a healthy line up, the Jays can finally make the
playoffs.
