David Price talks about playing for entire country of Canada
David Price is learning that there is a difference between playing for a city and playing for a country.
It's pretty clear he's enjoying the latter.
In an interview with Sportsnet, he was asked if he would consider playing in Toronto for longer than his contract (which expires after this season). His response? "Absolutely."
He went on to describe how different playing in Toronto is:
“I mean the amount of support I’ve received ever since I was traded here it’s amazing. I never thought it would get to this point. I don’t care who I played for or what jersey I was wearing, the amount of support not only from one city but from an entire country. I don’t think I ever viewed it that way until right after I was traded. My brother texted me and he was like, ‘You no longer play for a city any more, you’re playing for an entire country.’ When he said that to me I was like 'Wow, you’re right.’ That changes things a little bit.”
Price's quotes have to be exciting for Jays fans, who can imagine nearly this entire team returning to compete in 2016.
