I guess glad to see it is working out for you guys but as a Cards fan certainly glad him and his dad are off the team and plying their BS somewhere else.

His dad hasn't done anything or been in the news once from Toronto.
The Blue Jays literally gave away spare parts and Cory Patterson, who is just god awful. Rzepcynski was decent for 2 playoff series, and his having a truly awful 2012 season. Right now the Cardinals have nothing to show for that trade, but they did win a World Series, how much those players contributed to it can be argued, but hey, it's a world series ring and they got some relief pitching help.
From a Jays perspective, we gave away barely anything and now have a player at one of the most skilled positions in baseball, for a long time.
