Yes! And both of them are so grounded, because they’ve seen it all and appreciate everything that has happened

Ernie Clement has to be right up there too
Waived by Cleveland & released by Oakland, reports are he chose a minor league offer from Toronto only because they offered one or two more minor league guaranteed lineup appearances per week
I don’t think the Blue Jays would be where they are without him

Is there a better baseball story than Nathan Lukes? Scuffling in the minor leagues forever and suddenly he’s regular on a team headed to the World Series #BlueJays

Lots of Dodger fans out there, and maybe a few in Japan…haha

Andres Gimenez said being in the #WorldSeries is even more special because “an entire country is behind us.” 🇨🇦 #BlueJays

I’ve been a baseball fan for more than 65 years, and I’ve never seen a team quite like the current #BlueJays….words can’t do this team justice

So many heroes, as usual…Bassitt working a perfect 8th, Gausman struggling through the 7th without his best stuff, Hoffman striking out the side….Varland….IKF and Barger on base for the great Springer! #BlueJays
