Fresh Whats Up thread

The old thread is getting a bit long in the tooth now, so lets start with a clean slate.

Gibbons signed for 2016/17 with a pay raise, no more rolling automatic option clause.
MLB's Jay top 30 list is on the site now. No real shocks.
Jays still in first for the AL by 1 1/2, Yankees 4 1/2 back, Tampa 5, Boston 6 1/2, Baltimore dead last in majors.

Just a few items to get things going. Plus the 16-1 thumping the Jays gave Detroit yesterday is always fun (Tigers in 2nd in AL right now).

As an FYI: the other Toronto teams are interesting in their own ways. Raptors 2nd in East by 1 1/2 on a 4 game winning streak and I don't think I have a clue who anyone on their roster is, Leafs are dead last in the NHL but are just 2 points from 2nd last with 4 games in hand and are on a 2 game winning streak which is a big deal for them - after a one year blip in 12/13 they are solidly back into the 'who needs to play extra hockey we want summer off' as they have been ever since the year long lockout.
