Blue Jays Fans Create Hilarious Site to Try and Keep David Price

According to reports, David Price loved his time in Toronto after he was traded at the deadline this past season, and he might want to go back there now that he’s a free agent. Whether that’s likely to happen is a separate question for a separate place, but there’s a feeling of mutuality with the fans.

Indeed, so strong are the Blue Jays fans’ feelings on the subject of bringing David Price back that a group launched a dedicated website to that end: www.anypricefordavid.com.

The site is simple and elegant, and allows Blue Jays fans to pledge to do X – not, like, the drug, but fill-in-the-blank-X – if Price re-signs with Toronto:

any price for david

Among some of the winning pledges so far, with a little commentary (names removed to protect the fanatical):

  • If David Price stays in Toronto, I agree to give David Price a ride in my 1966 Corvette. No touching. (The car or the driver?)
  • If David Price stays in Toronto, I agree to Chug shampoo. Lots of it. (And “Chug” is capitalized, so this is very serious.)
  • If David Price stays in Toronto, I agree to go streaking on the field the next time the Padres come to town. (Security is now on high alert.)
  • If David Price stays in Toronto, I agree to Jump in Lake Ontario in -20 degree weather and swim laps. (Safety first.)
  • And it goes on. There are nearly 2,000 pledges to date.
