I'm not surprised AT ALL and actually predicted that the Blue Jays would miss the playoffs whereas all of the so called "experts" predicted them to win the division, go to the World Series, and some even said they'd WIN the World Series! SMH
Come on, I only predicted them to win the wildcard lol.
Anybody else surprised/happy that Cleveland is doing pretty good with Francona at the helm? I have always thought of him as a great manager (ala Joe Torre).
Being from Cleveland and a lifelong Indians fan, I am pleasantly surprised at how Francona has lifted this team. I was surprised that he took the job with us. But he commands respect and gets the most out of his players. Barring injuries, the Indians should be in contention with Detroit all season.
I am hoping he can break the championship curse in Cleveland like he did with the Red Sox.
I liked Terry as a manager, but since he was Red Sox manager..
. Is he Tito's son? When I was kid I played imaginary games with my friend. As Yankee fans we played the American League teams with players like Tito Francona, Rocky Colavito, Minnie Minoso, Luis Aparicio, Nellie Fox, Hoyt Whilhelm, Gus Triandos, Harmon Killebrew, Zolio Versailles, then their there were those hated National Leaguers; Bill Mazeroski, Warren Spahn, Eddie Matthews, Hank Aaron, Sandy Koufax, John Roseboro, ok, that's enough
