And the fact that he was dealt to Seattle? Even more juice to a storyline given the playoff calamity that unfolded here last October.
We apologize, but this video has failed to load.Translated: Damn right the former Jays cleanup hitter and veteran presence was displeased when the trade that brought reliever Erik Swanson to Toronto went down on Nov. 16.
Though the wise guys on social media had tipped off Hernandez to his fate as speculation of a trade began to simmer, he said there was still an element of surprise when it went down.Article content Still, you get the impression there will always be some sting over how it went down. The more success he had in a Blue Jays uniform, the more he believed he’d be in Toronto for the rest of his career.
His last act of business as a Jay here was to hit a pair of home runs in that AL wild-card game to help the Jays to an 8-1 lead before the epic collapse that lead to a 10-9 loss and Mariners sweep. The wardrobe change to a Seattle jersey has plenty of layers to it, of course, an unlikely rivalry from two teams a continent away and in different divisions. The annual invasion of Western Canadian fans to the Pacific Northwest for a raucous road trip doesn’t sit well with Mariners fans and there was plenty of juice added with last year’s playoff matchup.
