From the Post: John Farrell swung into town last week, spreading his New Year’s narrative. It is neither subtle nor surprising. For his team to contend in 2012, he says, Brett Cecil and Colby Rasmus must snap out of their 2011 stupors.
His narrative fans out from there, focusing first on a problematic rotation and pausing for a look at the question marks in left field, with a few other brow-knitting stops along the way.
Farrell’s conclusion: His Toronto Blue Jays, as currently constituted, have what it takes to win 10 more games and make the playoffs this year.
