Leafs-Schmeafs!

You can feel the excitement for the Blue Jays in this city.

As a matter of fact, tickets for the Jays home opener against the Cleveland Indians sold out in just 20 minutes after the seats went on sale.

The Jays head into the 2013 season with renewed optimism after a number of major off season trades and acquisitions.

Pitcher RA Dickey is the reigning National League Cy Young award winner, signed a deal with Toronto after spending last season with the Mets.

Pitchers Mark Buehrle and Josh Johnson were also brought in to bring some depth to the bullpen.

Add that to the acquisitions of Jose Reyes, Melky Cabrera, Maicer Izturis and Emilio Bonifacio and you have some offense to back up the pitching prowess.

Don't forget about a healthy Jose Bautista back in the lineup and you have some pretty good reasons to be hopeful.
