Born Blue: Drabek

Drabek

Disappointed. That is the only word I have for the demotion of Kyle Drabek to Vegas. I feel like he needed to work out his struggles up here, but, I'm not the GM. I know that Drabeck & Morrow have been having their troubles this season, but I feel like dealing with it up here will only make it better down the line when we're a contender.

Even Jo Jo Reyes has made me a believer after his 28 straight starts without a winner. This season is for shit, we all know it. Why not let Drabek, Morrow, Cecil & hell Litsch sort it out up here so two years from now we can destroy all advocates?

Background for Born Blue

The Jays were born in ’77, as was I.

This is my team.

I remember watching from the bleachers in Exhibition Stadium. I remember watching Stieb (hero) pitch. I remember being a performer in the opening of the dome.

I was in the stands spring training games in Duneden in ’92 with the family and yes Alomar was a dick even then.

I remember thinking “now would be a good time for a HR Joe” in the fall of 93. That thought from the rocking chair in my living room in Whitby and I didn’t say it out loud because I’m a baseball fan and that of course that means I’m very superstitious.

I remember being the first guy in the stands with a “Hip Hip Jose” sign, way back in the middle of 2010 before he hit 54 dingers (I hope that sign catches on). I remember thinking Morrow is the new Stieb after the one-hit, 17 k outing.

I was born blue, I bleed blue & I blog blue.
