I can see it happening, as soon as he goes somewhere weather it be a trade or what ever, it will all come together for him and than Superstar,,,,,he is right though one of the main reasons we are way behind in a wild card race is that both him, and Vernon"i don't hit in the clutch" Wells are not producing like we need them to be for the big dollers they are getting paid. I read today that the jays are the only team with less than 500 runs scored against,so with our pitching and D-fence it would have taken to many more key hits and hr's to chaulk up a few more wins and we would have been right in the thick of it (sigh),, so I agree we should "Blame it on Rios"
