FFS...what a horrible year. I can't remember a season like this. Reminds of the end of one Raptors season where Vince and everyone were dropping like flies.

This team is **** cursed!!! What did we do!?!
...and of course, since he's a catcher, it's got to be one of his **** knee's too!! Talk about adding insult to injury.
Wow.

He took tearing up the PCL to a new level?
This reminds me of when Lawrie broke his wrist.

I don't get how this and that have anything to do with each other. He injured himself going into 2nd.

What is it with injuries in general, half the Jays organization seems hurt and half my fantasy team is hurt.

You're right, you don't get it - as though I inferred that this occurred while behind the plate, rather than (the much more logical) Injured knee + position that is hard on the knees + "logjam" at said position = consideration for other positions.

You still have no real valid point. It'll take much more than this to move the best C in the minors to 1st.

And this would be why it's a good thing the team didn't trade JPA when they didn't need to.

Obviously. I guess I assumed you were talkng about moving him to first full-time. Becoming a partial first baseman like Santana, Mauer, Martinez, etc. there's nothing wrong with that.
