Mon, 04 Mar 2013 07:42:15 -0800 Toronto Blue Jays OF Colby Rasmus ripped former manager John Farrell with recent comments about handling stressful situations. "I'm not trying to bash anybody by starting up crap, but I think John Gibbons has got a little bit of a better idea of how to handle it," Rasmus said, "just because I don't see him as a guy that's going to hit that panic button and get tight and into kind of freak-out mode."
Sun, 03 Mar 2013 21:17:41 -0800 Toronto Blue Jays OF Colby Rasmus (shoulder) has been dealing with a right shoulder injury. He is expected to return to action in the Grapefruit League spring game Tuesday, March 5, against the Baltimore Orioles. "He probably could have played (Sunday, March 3), but with the day off tomorrow, (and) it's a cool day, it makes sense," manager John Gibbons said.

Fri, 01 Mar 2013 13:17:13 -0800 Toronto Blue Jays OF Colby Rasmus (shoulder) missed his second straight game with right shoulder soreness Friday, March 1. He injured his shoulder swinging in the batting cage Thursday, Feb. 28. The injury isn't serious, and he's expected to return next week.

Fri, 22 Feb 2013 13:09:39 -0800 Toronto Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said the team will keep a close eye on how 1B Adam Lind fares against left-handed pitching this spring, and they're currently debating whether they think he can be an everyday player. "We're looking at it," Gibbons said. "That's what we want to (evaluate), because we have some right-handed bats that could fill that hole if we're stronger that way." Lind hit .202 against lefties last year and hits .220 against them in his career. Gibbons downplayed the possibility that OF Colby Rasmus could be involved in a platoon at first base. INF Emilio Bonifacio and OF Rajai Davis are intriguing options off the bench against righties.
Tue, 19 Feb 2013 10:31:41 -0800 Toronto Blue Jays OF Colby Rasmus, who is known for making frequent changes to his swing and approach during the season, is intent on keeping things consistent this season. "The talent in him is unbelievable," hitting coach Chad Mottola said. "The things he does, the way he gets to the front of the box, and we're just going to get his quick hands to work in his favor rather than going through swing changes all year." Moving up in the batter's box last season was his biggest and most effective change. This year, he will stay at the front of the box, but he has slightly dropped his hands in his stance. "You wouldn't think that, but it's happened to me. I'm trying to keep my hands lower in a good slot, and try to keep a good separation with my foot going forward and my hands going back. I think that will help with timing issues," Rasmus said. Rasmus tired down the stretch last year because of his relentless work ethic, and his motto this year is "quality over quantity" when it comes to work on the side.
