This is not a thoughtful and incisive overview of the ALCS and NLCS. I was looking up some things yesterday and figured I'd share them rather than not. First of all, I was extremely pleased to watch the Blue Jays hardly break a sweat while humiliating the Yankees. But then I thought . . . shit, the Blue Jays are now really close to going to the World Series. . . . which means they could actually win the World Series. . . . But then I thought, I no longer live outside To...

Photo by Tim Warner/Getty Images The Blue Jays’ new third baseman got a two year deal to avoid arbitration.

Yesterday afternoon came word that the Dodgers had dealt right-handed pitcher Ross Stripling to the Toronto Blue Jays for two players to be named later -- one of which we now know is 20-year old right-handed pitching prospect Kendall Williams (more on him later). As you'll recall, Stripling had seemingly been traded to the crosstown Angels (along with Joc Pederson) over the winter, but that was thwarted by the Anaheim ownership -...
