Which Ricky Romero are the Jays getting?
Time will tell if the Blue Jays get Good Ricky or Bad Romero for the 2013 season

Ricky Romero will tell you that last year was last year. It’s over and he’s turned the page.

But then he comes out and makes a start like he did on Saturday against the Tigers and you have to wonder.

Against Detroit, Romero lasted two innings — he was scheduled to go three — and gave up three hits and two runs (one earned), walked three and struck out one. He also gave up a home run to left-handed hitting Andy Dirks.

It was a walk down memory lane of what he offered in most of his starts in the disaster that was 2012.

It’s spring and all and starters are working on things but due to what happened in 2012 you have to wonder which Ricky will show up this season?







Are you encouraged by the Toronto Blue Jays' recent winning streak?
  Yes, team is starting to gel
  No, team is not championship calibre
  Unsure what to make of it
