Dear David,
Can I call you David? I think we've reached a point in our relationship
where we're on a first-name basis. I'm definitely okay with you calling me
Andrew, or a nickname of your choosing. Or Bob, or Tony, or Bridget. In short:
call me whatever you like.
Now that you're officially a free agent, I feel it's time to address the
elephant in the room: are you re-signing with Blue Jays? Are you? Are you? Are
you? Are you?
(And FYI, the second elephant in the room - the Alex Anthopolous-shaped one
- will be addressed at a later date)
Like much of baseball-loving Canada, I'm still trying to come to terms with
the end of the Blue Jays' season - as I'm sure you are too - but the business of
sports never rests, so onto the business at hand. I'm going to take this
opportunity to implore you to re-sign with the Blue Jays.
As you're surely well aware, there's untold teams currently on their way to
court and woo and throw absolutely obscene amounts of money at you. You're
also going to be on the receiving end of promises and sales pitches the likes
of which I can't even fathom. But hear me out, the info below may help clarify
things for you a little.
