Even Mark DeRosa Believed by Navin Vaswani August 16, 2013 The Toronto Blue Jays have let me down before. Many times. Regularly, in fact. But they haven’t let me down like this. Worst of all: they let down Mark DeRosa. The season’s over. The eulogy has begun. Even DeRosa believed. “I told Casey Janssen after, this is what I signed up for, a 2-1 game against Boston with our closer on the mound and the heart of their order coming up in the ninth inning. We’ve let a lot of people down, let ourselves down, but this team is more than capable of rolling off some wins. … I just want us to compete over these last six weeks.” It’s mid-August, and in Toronto, we’re thinking about April. Again. I have no idea what the Blue Jays should do about Josh Johnson and Adam Lind, heading into 2014, but I know I want them to bring back Mark DeRosa. Image credit: Otto Greule Jr./Getty Images
