Radio: Treasure Island Baseball Network for most of us, eight stations in Ontario , nothing in Manitoba (maybe they could pick up Roseau’s signal?
) Talk about a bummer ending for Blue Jays fans in last year’s World Series; losing a late lead in Game 7, then losing the game in extra innings (the same happened in Game 3). In the offseason, the Jays picked up Dylan Cease, Taylor Rogers’s brother, and today’s starter, Patrick Corbin. Corbin’s a low-90s junkballer who’s a fan of politicians that cheat at golf, plus he’s lefthanded and breathing, which means he’ll probably give Twins hitters fits .
(Or, maybe not, if Zach’s got this squad measured correctly. ) The 36-year-old Corbin (old by baseball years, but in life years, I’d trade with him) was called up after the Jays got pummeled by L. A.
on Tuesday, and they’re currently below . 500. I’d expect them to do better soon; still, a depressing start after last year’s depressing finish.
