Toronto has everything that Montreal wants but now the Expos have everything the Blue Jays need The Expos crave the attention (at the gate and on TV), adulation and championsHips the Blue Jays possess. Things that would provide the cash flow they need to end the yearly speculation they're leaving town. The Blue Jays may have the championships but the attention they're getting is for the wrong reasons as they battle for last place in théir division. The cure for what ails them is the Expos' personnel. You'll get an argument to separate the country over which team has the best players at each position, but suffice it to say the Blue Jays batting order is still the best in baseball (even if' no seff-respecting Expo fan will admit it) but the Expos' pitching staff is one of the few that could handle that lineup. so Montreal's baseball summapmight be better than Toronto's The Blue Jays are hittable proof of the adage "You can get enough pitching." Even Toronto's high-powered offence can't win 7-8 every night. Their problem is obvious; the baseballs are not only juiced this year, they're bigger and seldom miss a bat. The notable difference between the two pitching staffs is money. The Blue Jays are paying more for less because they won two championships. It truly costs a lot to win in baseball Saddled with a World Series payroll in excess of $45 million the Jays had to let Jimmy Key, David Cone ano David Wells move on. And rather thar pay Jack Morris $5 million to pitch, they chose to pay him a fortune not to The Expos have a younger more dependable staff and could pay the salaries of two or three starters with the million it cost to buy out Morris. They have not one, but two closers in Mel Rojas and John Wetteland and, since they've not won yet, Montreal's payroll is half that of Toronto's. the young talent is just or the verge of making big dough Both teams have been models for building from within. Their well-stocked minor leagues have been the envy of all baseball But now when the Expos need a fifth starter they go to the minors and find Gabe White ready for prime time. When the Blue Jays need. help they go to the farm and find the crop already harvested. Top prospects were traded away 10 win Yet another high price for championship rings. The Expos won't attract four million fans like Toronto because they don't have the corporate demand for tickets in Montreal They won't get 150 games on TV because the same corporation that don't buy tickets don't buy TV ads On the field, however, .they have a grea! chance to catch up and when they do they'll have to pay the price of success.
