2008/09 Raptors Season:
2008 was thought of as a year of great hope in Toronto. During the offseason, new General Manager Brian Colangelo traded the oft injured T.J. Ford, big man Rasho Nestrovic and first round draft pick Roy Hibbert to the Indiana Pacers for former All-Star Jermaine O'Neal who was expected to team with star Chris Bosh to form one of the leagues most lethal front courts. The Raptors would also add role players Roko Ukic, Will Soloman and Hassan Adams in the offseason while losing only Carlos Delfino to the Spanish League. The Raptors were considered one of the favorites in the Eastern Conference and Chris Bosh infamously pronounced his team equal to the World Champion Boston Celtics in the offseason.

What followed was one of the most un-Celtic like season's the Raptors could have hoped for.

Plagued by injuries to stars Bosh and Calderon all season coupled with the fact off season acquisition O'Neal played only 27 games in a Raptors uniform and the Dinos were almost immediately out of playoff contention and on most night's were forced to start a bench player thanks to an unfortunate injury. 17 games into the season and poised with an 8-9 record, Raptors management fired fan favorite and coach Sam Mitchell and promoted Canadian Jay Triano from his assistant coach position to file Mitchell's role. Triano would do no better and the Raptors would go into the All-Star break at 21-34 and out of playoff contention with several of the team's stars visibly unhappy.

On February 13, the Raptors would trade O'Neal and swingman Jamario Moon to the Miami Heat for former Phoenix Sun forward Shawn Marion and guard Marcus Banks. Marion would immediately clash with Triano and only two games into his tenure with the Raptors demanded a trade out of Toronto. However, after a solid final month of the season in which they went on a season high six game win streak and got several key contributions from rotation players such as Andrea Bargnani and Banks, the Raptors were poised to strike in 2009/10 and build on a 33-49 record that saw them finish fourth in the Eastern Conference's Atlantic Division.

2009 Offseason:
G.M. Colangelo promised a dramatically better Raptors squad from the 33-49 team that showed up in 2008/09 and began his shakeup of the roster June 9th when he traded three point specialist Jason Kapono to the division rival Philadelphia 76ers for big man Reggie Evans, who gives the Raptors toughness they soarly lacked down the stretch last season. Going into the offseason, the Raptors have two expiring contracts in Marion and guard Anthony Parker, who are both not expected to be retained by the July 1st deadline.

Players under contract:
Chris Bosh
Jose Calderon
Andrea Bargnani
Reggie Evans
Marcus Banks
Kris Humpheries
Joey Graham
Patrick O'Bryant (Team Option)
Roko Ukic
Nathan Jawai (Team Option)

Raptors choose DeRozen at 9

​

Madison Square Garden- The Toronto Raptors ushered in a new era tonight at Madison Square Garden when they selected University of Southern California swingman Demar DeRozen with the 9th pick of the NBA Draft. DeRozen, who played only one season at USC, had averages of 13 points and 5 assists while playing as a two guard in Tim Floyd's offense. He hopes to capture the success of another one year Trojan, O.J. Mayo, in the NBA.

DeRozen will be holding a press conference with the media and asks that you get any questions in to T.Dot by Friday at 5:00 P.M.

Raps trade shooter Kapono to 6ers for Evans

​

TORONTO- Toronto Raptors General Manager Brian Colangelo promised retooling and Thursday he followed thru on that promise by sending three point specialist Jason Kapono to the division rival Philadelphia 76ers for power forward Reggie Evans.

"We will miss Jason for sure but we believe Reggie brings us some of the toughness we were lacking down the stretch last year and he can be a dependable minute muncher in our front court." Colangelo said at the introductory press conference.

Evans has established career averages of 4.3 points, 6.9 rebounds and 19.6 minutes per game and has grabbed 20+ rebounds three times in his five year career that has spanned Seattle, Denver and Philadelphia. He is expected to compete with Kris Humpheries for playing time off the bench.

Kapono had averages of 7.7 points and 1.2 rebounds in two sub-par seasons with the Raptors that including a three point championship at the 2007 All-Star Game.

"It's tough to leave friends here in Toronto but hopefully I can go to Philly and immediately make that team a contender." Kapono said via press release.

End of Season Statistics

--Catchers--

Rod Barajas- .300, 20 HR, 70 RBI
Curtis Thigpen- .177, 1 HR, 9 RBI
Michael Barrett- .270, 0 HR, 8 RBI
J.P. Arencibia- .230, 0 HR, 3 RBI
Raul Chavez- .066, 0 HR, 1 RBI

It was a tough season for catchers in Toronto as the Jays used a total of five catchers throughout the season despite the fact they had a bona fide number one catcher (Rod Barajas) for the first time this decade. Barajas was one of the Jays' best players all season and made his first All Star team. If it had not been for a late season injury that kept him out a month he could have hit 30 home runs. Behind Barajas no one really stood out until late in the season when rookie J.P. Arencibia laid claim to the lead in the early race for backup catcher next season. The veterans of the bunch, Thigpen, Barrett and Chavez were all inconsistent this season and it is possible that none of them will be back next season.

Grade:
B

--Corner Infielders--

1B Lyle Overbay- .335, 27 HR, 106 RBI
1B Kevin Millar- .310, 1 HR, 10 RBI
3B Adrian Beltre- .287, 23 HR, 96 RBI
3B Mark Sobolewski- .309, 11 HR, 33 RBI
3B Jose Bautista- .325, 18 HR, 60 RBI
3B Joe Inglett- .341, 3 HR, 16 RBI

This unit was led by the sweet hitting of first baseman Lyle Overbay who rebounded from a dismal 2008 campaign to lead the American League in hitting and earn a spot as an All Star. Along with midseason pickup Adrian Beltre this unit provided tons of power for the light hitting Jays through many feel Beltre did not perform up to expectations in the latter part of the season. Mark Sobolewski and Jose Bautista were perhaps the Jays' best bench players this season and the 21 year old Sobolewski looks like a middle of the order talent.

Grade:
A

--Middle Infielders--

2B Aaron Hill- .323, 9 HR, 67 RBI
2B Ryan Raburn- .330, 3 HR, 17 RBI
SS Marco Scutaro- .278, 6 HR, 36 RBI
SS Russ Adams- .119, 0 HR, 1 RBI
SS Justin Jackson- .113, 0 HR, 2 RBI
SS John McDonald- .266, 2 HR, 17 RBI

The starters in the middle of the Jays' infield combined for 15 home runs this season, something the Jays had hoped would double this year for Aaron Hill and Marco Scutaro. However, they did provide bang for the Jays' buck on the defensive side of the ball where they became on of the best double play combinations in baseball this season. Hill's backup Ryan Raburn, a midseason acquisation from the Detroit Tigers, was a very hot hitter until he went down to injury in late August. Scutaro's backups on the other hand, combined for only two home runs all season and due to the amount of injuries that seemed to befall Blue Jays shortstops, the team played every shortstop in their system this season, through the results were not what they hoped for.

Grade:
C+

--Outfielders--

RF Alex Rios- .299, 21 HR, 90 RBI
RF Wayne Lydon- .273, 4 HR, 11 RBI
CF Vernon Wells- .328, 20 HR, 110 RBI
CF Jim Edmonds- .382, 15 HR, 42 RBI
LF Adam Loewen- .271, 3 HR, 12 RBI
LF Travis Snider- .297, 4 HR, 24 RBI
LF Adam Lind- .328, 17 HR, 75 RBI

Everyone knows about the sweet hitting outfielders the Jays employ, from grimy veteran to fresh faced youngster, this outfield had it. The grimy veteran was May signing Jim Edmonds, who if not for an injury that kept him out three months, could have hit 30 home runs. Edmonds' was not only a middle of the order threat but a mentor for youngsters Adam Loewen, Adam Lind and Travis Snider, all who had breakout seasons. The franchise players in the outfield rebounded from off years as well as Alex Rios and Vernon Wells combined to hit 41 home runs and drive in 200 runs to dispell the notion they were overpriced busts.

Grade:
A-

--Starting Pitchers--

Roy Halladay- 17-9, 144 K, 3.73 ERA
Brian Tallet- 4-0, 13 K, 4.30 ERA
Scott Richmond- 14-8, 102 K, 4.16 ERA
David Purcey- 8-8, 105 K, 5.21 ERA
Brian Burres- 7-4, 65 K, 4.23 ERA
Brett Cecil- 2-0, 11 K, 4.44 ERA
Matt Clement- 0-0, 10 K, 7.45 ERA
Luis Perez- 1-0, 2 K, 7.36 ERA
Bryan Bullington- 0-0, 2 Saves, 9 K, 6.32 ERA

The discussion about the Toronto Blue Jays' starting pitchers starts and ends with Roy Halladay. After a terrible first half in which he went into the All-Star break with a 6-8 record, Halladay went 11-1 the rest of the way to push the Jays into playoff contention. Another bright spot was Canadian left hander Scott Richmond who finished 14-8 with a 4.16 ERA and stepped up as the second starter after the Jays traded touted righty Jesse Litsch at the deadline for Beltre. The Jays played a lot of youth at this position this season and garnered strong performances from young pitchers such as Brian Burres, Brett Cecil and Bryan Bullington who efficiently filled the holes Dustin McGowan and Shawn Marcum left. With those two top of the rotation guys back next year look for this unit to be one of the league's best.

Grade:
B-

--Relief Pitchers--

Ricky Romero- 0-0, 10 K, 4.02 ERA
Casey Janssen- 3-3, 1 Save, 27 K, 5.91 ERA
Brandon League- 2-5, 3 Saves, 63 K, 3.09 ERA
Jason Frasor- 3-2, 1 Save, 47 K, 4.50 ERA
Jeremy Accardo- 4-5, 3 Saves, 62 K, 3.09 ERA
Joe Beimel- 4-5, 21 K, 4.22 ERA
Marty McCleary- 0-0, 4 K, 13.50 ERA
Fabio Castro- 0-1, 3 K, 4.91 ERA
Shawn Camp- 0-2, 3 Saves, 5 K, 2.70 ERA
T.J. Beam- 0-0, 4 K, 3.38 ERA
B.J. Ryan- 3-2, 24 Saves, 32 K, 3.89 ERA
Scott Downs- 10-9, 5 Saves, 87 K, 4.16 ERA

Dissapointing is a good word to describe the performance of the Jays' relief corps this season. Their closer (B.J. Ryan) and prime setup man (Jason Frasor) were both sent down late in the season due to burgaining performance while the young callups all looked as if they were thrown into the fire too quickly. The bullpen blew at least 15 games for the Jays and for most players inconsistentcy brought them down. The Jays and manager Cito Gaston expect a better performance from the 'pen next season.
