Mat Germain

I have over 26 years of “MLB monitoring experience”, 16 years of Fantasy baseball experience, and decided to take on blogging about my observations because I love to write about and study everything about baseball. My hope is to share the wonderful world that is being a passionate fan of a great team, the Jays, with all who care to read my posts!

I did grow up as both an Expos and Blue Jays fan, and being from Montreal originally, I did see over 500 games in the parking lot that was the Big O before seeing my first “real” baseball game at Fenway Park. Needless to say it was a huge eye opener in terms of atmosphere. I’ve been to Rogers center too often to count, and was also lucky enough to see some games at the old Yankee stadium before they built the new and more expensive, yet less historic, version. I hope to visit Wrigley Field very soon, have plans to make it to Minnesota to see their new stadium, and also have trip in the works to visit the guys in AA New Hampshire this summer!

Professionally, I have been in the military for 18 years, am a University graduate Business Administration degree with a major in Management and minor in Political Science.

I’m not just a baseball guy, as I enjoy all sports and played most of them at one time or another. Baseball, Football, Hockey, Triathlons, Swimming, and Rugby were my main sports of choice, although I am most successful in Rugby. My favorite teams for those sports include the Jays, obviously, New England Patriots, Montreal Canadians, and the All Blacks.

This blog is my passion and hobby, and hopefully a nice retirement project that results in making a ton of great friends and in taking up some of my spare time! In short, I do this because I love to and hope you’ll enjoy at least some of what JJ has to offer.

If at any time, you have gripes about what we write or suggestions about the content, please don’t hesitate to contact me directly.
