Don’t Get Me Wrong…

Not going to watch the game today. Not because I’m upset or anything but because I have to work. That’s a good reason right?
Of course I still love this team and yes they are only 4-5. They can easily bounce back from this sweep. I just get so frustrated with the team and get so down. But I have to carry on with my head held high.
 
Quick note though…if these types of games continue to happen and the season starts to get (somehow) worse, then the Jays really need to rethink the coaching and managing staff. All the pieces for the team are in place and I really think are big issues might lie within management. John Gibbons and J.P. Ricciardi have done reasonably well over the last couple of seasons. Ricciardi has brought in some players that have really boosted this team and have given them a fighting chance. But lately I am on the fence with Gibbons. I like the guy but I think his meter is running out here in Toronto. It has been shown in the past that he has not gotten along with certain players…so who knows what his relationship is with the current team. Do the players respect him? Do they to him for advice and such? Personally I would prefer Ernie Whitt as the boss…but that’s just me.

I Dub Ye Coach Whitt

…So good luck tonight to Jesse Litsch and the Jays. And I will post a much longer and more in-depth blog later on tonight or tomorrow afternoon.
