The Jays are boppers

But this is what makes me sad. Manny isn't a bopper. Even when people were hitting 70 home runs he never hit more than 45. His career average is over .310. He's going to get 3000 hits if he plays another 4 years.

He's one of the best hitters we've ever seen. Steroids doesn't help that.
