Motivational Speaking in Toronto
By ThrowsLikeAGirl
By Blue Jays fan Derek
A day after Toronto’s 13-19 loss to Tampa Bay, Jays first baseman Carlos Delgado and catcher Gregg Zaun called for an all-players meeting to discuss their, well, "issues." The injured slugger must have said some heart-warming, unforgettable words as his Jays went out and defeated Montreal 3-1, thanks in part to a few not-so-minor-league-anymore pitches from Josh Towers. That’s a great bedtime story, yeah?
So I guess this means that Delgado works for the Toronto branch of Inspiring Speakers. Did I say works? I meant runs it. No offense to Blue Jay or Delgado fans (God forbid!), but it seems that this All-Star can be more productive on the IL. No doubt that after the game he gave another eye-wetting performance from atop his locker-room podium, congratulating Toronto’s success. Now, if I were GM Ricciardi, I would be trying to schedule Carlos pep-talks before each and every game! Hopefully his sermons can continue until July 21st, when the Jays face off against the Yankees.
Bravo, Reverend! Bravo!
