Jays did class a a Homework by Richard Shook Toronto up in the beginning they were terrible. By thai is the Way of All expansion base Ball teams so Why should the Toronto Blue jays have been an exception what sets Toronto apart from other clubs though is the Diligence with which Blue jays scouts have done i hair class a and class a Homework. Formed More from contributing teams rejects and suspects than their prospects Toronto struggled from its 1977 inception. But the founders had a plan. They would chose the intelligent Way to form a contend ing baseball learn the Way the Kansas cily royals had done. They would build a Strong farm system then Wail for it to pay off. It paid off somewhat in 1982, when the Blue jays went 78-84, their first season above 60 victories. In 1983 they won 89 games and were in position to win it the top spot until a series of late inning losses plunged the club to fourth nine games out. The 1984 season was another 89-Victory year but the Detroit tigers got so far in front so quickly it was t until the second month of he 1985 season Toronto was Able to cach them. But now the Blue jays look Young enough and Strong enough to be a Power for years to come. Especially with their farm system. Toronto look two types of drafts to build its club the free agent draft and the major league draft. From the expansion draft of 1976 that stocked the club Catcher Ernie Whin bos to part time third baseman Garth Lorg new York and starting Pitcher Jim clan by remain. Toronto because it figured it had Noth ing to lose but its managers hair has acquired several of its players because it was willing to draft youngsters from other club s minor league systems. It usually meant the drafted youngsters had to spend a season on the Bench in the majors or be offered Back to their original club at half Price but what s the differ ence when you Aren t going anywhere and icy could always be sent to the minors the a Cal Spring. It s a method that gave Toronto its Start ing left fielder George Bell whom Blue Jay scouts noticed was largely injured in 1980. They drafted him from Philadelphia he spam 1981 on Toronto s Bench then 1982 and most of 1983 in the minors. First baseman Willie Upshaw was left Ungro Leclede by the new York Yankees in 1977. By 1981 he was with the Blue jays to stay. Right hander Jim Acker was plucked from Atlanta in 1982 and is a valuable Long Man while this season Toronto has Beer playing largely with a 23-Man roster be cause of the presence of draftees Manny Lee a Sharp Fielding infield or drafted from Houston and outfielder Lou Thornton taken from the new York acts. The club s free agent scouts weren t Tak ing naps while All this was going on. I r. Center fielder Lloyd mos by was Ron to s no. 1 Choice in the june 1978. Draft. A year earlier right fielder Jesse Barfield was the Blue jays no. 9 pick. Left hander Jimmy key was signed As the third round selection in the june 1982, draft while Ace Dave Salieb was a fifth round Choice in 1978. Toronto got its second baseman Damaso Garcia in a Trade with new York in 1979 and picked up the Fine left handed half of its third base platoon. Ranee Mulliniks in Reuters photo Blue jays left hander Jimmy key third round draft Choice was one of Toronto s successful farm projects. An Exchange with Kansas City in 1982. Reserve first baseman Cecil fielder was noticed As an overweight hut hard working class a youngster and Toronto insisted he be the Man Kansas City give up for Leon Roberts a couple of years ago. Shortstop Tony Fernandez was signed As a free agent in 1979 and improved so much Toronto could Trade Alfredo Griffin and Dave Collins to Oakland for Bill Caudill during the Winter. Left handed reliever Gary Lavelle was obtained in a Spring Trade. Veteran starter Doyle Alexander was signed after the new York Yankees who promoter May offer million for bout arc still paying his salary gave up on him in 1983 while Long Relief Ace Dennis lamp signed a big contract As a free agent in 1984. Designated hitters Al Oliver and Cliff Johnson were obtained in waiver deals late this season. Toronto s most meaningful acquisition however could turn out to be the selection of Short reliever Tom Hon pc in the free agent compensation draft for losing Johnson to Texas last Winter. Unke was brought up late in the season and has filled the role Toronto thought Caudill would fill in putting the Blue jays in position to win their first division title in their nine years of life.

Winning the world title is the Only thing on my mind. I m not interested in talking about Barry Mcguigan or what happens afterwards said the 32-year-old englishman who is expected to concentrate on avoiding Nelson s bombs and try to Jab his Way to Victory.
