Hey, late night Jays fans.
I’ll be at Book City’s Yonge & St Clair location Saturday at noon with a pile of signed books just waiting for you. Read about how even 100 years ago, Toronto was baseball crazy.

1926 Boston Marathon
1926 Boston Marathon YouTube video by My Footage

Imagine winning the first marathon you every ran. Cape Bretoner Johnny Miles, wearing 98 cent running shoes and a homemade singlet, beat the reigning four-time champ, and well as the defending Olympic Gold medallist at the Boston Marathon 100 years ago today.

Guys need to know their roles, although I’ve never been a fan of saving your best reliever for an arbitrary stat. Bring your best guy into the highest leverage situations.

Tucker Toman, the Jays 2nd round comp pick in 2022, is quietly putting things together in Vancouver. He’s given up seitch-hitting to hit from the left side, and leads the NWL in hitting, and is second in slugging.

I’m sorry, it’s because we swapped out the snow tires last week.

I’m sure he means it. Just like when he said he wouldn’t touch the Greenbelt.

Our dog Mabel is competing in sprint trials tomorrow, so at least there’s one team I cheer for that’s going to do well.

When I used to travel to Lansing, MI, when the Jays had a minor league affiliate there, I used to enjoy the drive along Hwys 89 and 21. It’s interesting how the railways shaped the direction of roads in that part of the province.

If you find yourself in my hometown of Midland, ON, this Wednesday, I'll have copies of my latest book, "The Howleyites: Toronto's Changing City, a Stadium Rising, and the Champions of 1926," for sale. I'll also talk about the Blue Jays, if you'd like.

Buffalo 3B Charles McAdoo hit a pair of HRs in Buffalo's twin bill yesterday, and with a 1.037 OPS on the young season, he's inching his way toward a big league job.

Trey Yesavage spiked a few fastballs in his last rehab start, and looked to my somewhat trained eye like he could use another.
