I think the hype would be there for sure. The jays are already getting forced on Canada as I mentioned earlier without success so I can imagine the media if they did have some success.
I just think that with the combination of people who don't care about baseball and who support other teams that it wouldn't be that big a deal outside of TO and perhaps the East according to Maritime Q-Scout.
Perhaps I am basing it to much on personal experience and I happen to miss out on all the Jays fans out here but it seems from my experience baseball ranks pretty low amongst most people I know, sports fans included.
