Featured Jays Player

Alex Rios, Outfielder. Alex is the new talent north of the border. He is an all-around player, who just seems to get better every year. Any opposing pitchers are not going to have fun pitching to this guy entering his fifth year in the Majors (last two he was an All-Star).

A Look Ahead

The 2008 Toronto Blue Jays are hoping to finally compete with the power houses of the East. It will be a difficult task, but with newly acquired vets Scott Rolen and David Eckstein they will look to make strides in the division race.
