Nice! It's a decent city. Incredibly green is the first thing I noticed moving here.

I had moved there in 2001 so it was still up and coming back then. I came back home in 2009 so I’m sure it’s changed dramatically since last time I’ve seen it. Probably 3-4x times the size it was back then. All kinds of construction and new builds the whole time I was there.
When I was done school, I worked a couple years at Lac Leamy until I found a job back home I could go to

Ya it's growing dramatically out in Kanata, Barrhaven, manotick.. basically the English side. Orleans not so much. Crazy housing prices.
Wanna live in the city? Million bucks gets you a cookie cutter townhouse -

There’s only away splits this year. There is no home. Even when they play their “home” games, it feels like an away game with more fans from the opposing team
That first game back at Rogers Centre (pending restrictions) is going to be bonkers...
Yeah I feel bad for the GTA Jays fans who don’t get to see this live. I’m a hardcore Jays fan but would be lucky to attend 1 game a year living in Atlantic Canada.
I would be there alot if I were closer lol
I'm spoiled a bit there. From Ottawa, so 4 hour drive. My brother lives downtown Toronto, a good bar hop away, so we usually go 3 times a year and each time would be a whole weekend series. 8-9 games or so a year. I've been to every home opener since 2007. Absolutely love it, even though it's not a great stadium.. It's like home
I'm 2.5 hours away at present but did live there for two university years and spent a lot of time at SkyDome. When I moved out of Toronto I used to drive to Yorkdale and park for free, taking the TTC down to the stadium for the day. Always brought my glove and sat along the third base line but never caught a foul ball, unfortunately!
Where are you now? I used to be 2.5 away lol. I'm originally from Sarnia. Moved to Ottawa 10 years ago
Interesting opposites we have. I did my schooling in Toronto, my residency in Ottawa then back to Toronto.

Ottawa is the most pleasant, active, and enjoyable city I lived in. Played so much rec hockey when I lived there.
I sure do miss a Broadway breakfast lol those garlic homefries were soooooo gooooood

My mom's parents lived in a huge house at the corner of Riverdale and Windsor (now demolished for apartments). Massive garden. Very fond memories. Ottawa is such a lovely city and I would happily live there.

Sadly, I dont think I could pull the trigger and rip my kids away from their environment.

Broadways is good! Got one near my house actually!

I was all geared up for HR 17 but we got a buzzkill double play

100%. What he's doing is astounding considering they've had 2 years away from their home stadium and fans. Unprecedented.
Uh ..you do realize all that means is he is playing in the same ballpark he's been playing in the minors

Vlad played very little in Dunedin, and in Buffalo. Under 50 games at each stop.
Don't know what that has to do with anything anyways.. he hasn't played in front of Jays fans since 2019 is the point -

Just making the point that they've been away from their proper home for 2 years and no other team has had to face that. That was it. I think it's impressive, that they're having the success they're managing to have.

Ok, your point misses mine completely, but if we take your point at face value then it's still unprecedented because none of the other HR leaders have had to schlep back to the minors and not play in front of their fans when they put up huge numbers.

No It doesn't miss your point at all. ..it is simply a counter to your point. He barely played in Toronto...so NOT playing in Toronto really isn't that big of a deal

Not playing in front of fans that cheer for you and not the other team isn't a big deal?
Then what is a home team advantage at all? Why do teams always do better at home? -
