DUNEDIN, Fla. Throwback West Virginia Jerseys . -- Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Colby Rasmus was scratched from Sundays lineup against the New York Yankees because of a stiff neck. Rasmus was set to bat seventh, but opted to sit as a precaution. He does not expect it to be a long-term issue and hopes to return in a "couple days." "I feel all right, I just woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning," Rasmus said. "I got a little crick in my neck and its just one of those things that after throwing and warming up, I just felt like I needed to take myself out." Rasmus hit .276 with 22 home runs and 66 RBIs last season. Anthony Gose took Rasmus place in centre field in the exhibition game. Stedman Bailey College Jersey . Appearing on TSN 1050 on Tuesday, Sean McAdam of Comcast SportsNet New England reported that the Blue Jays, along with a number of other playoff contenders were in the mix for the Boston ace. Authentic West Virginia Jerseys . Dr. James Andrews is to operate next week on the 24-year-old pitcher, who made the AL All-Star team last year. Moore will be the first Rays pitcher to undergo Tommy John surgery since Jason Isringhausen in June 2009.It wasn’t the copy and paste job the Seahawks’ roster comparison was, but the New England Patriots are still bringing along a number of familiar faces from their last Super Bowl appearance, three years ago. The most important piece is of course back in quarterback Tom Brady. Brady’s numbers are down this year from his 2011 campaign – more than 1,000 yards less passing and six less touchdown passes – but his unofficial MVP rating is about the same. Another big offensive piece is back in tight end Rob Gronkowski, and this year he won’t be inhibited by an ankle injury, both during the game and at the post-game dance party. Gronk’s two best seasons have both now culminated in Super Bowl appearances. In 2011 the massive tight end had 1,327 receiving yards and 17 touchdowns, and this year he finished with 1,124 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns. Gronk’s running mate from three years ago however won’t be with the team, with Aaron Hernandez of course now behind bars and standing trial for murder. Along with Brady and Gronkowski, offensive linemen Nate Solder and Dan Connolly are returning as offensive starters for the Patriots, although both in different positions. Solder, a rookie the last time New England made it to the Super Bowl, moves from right tackle to left tackle, while Connolly shifts from centre to guard. Wes Welker is back in the form of Julian Edelman, who was actually with the team three years ago. Primarily a punt returner, Edelman played as much defensive back as he did wide receiver in 2011. That won’t be the case this time around as the (listed as) 5-foot-10 speedster has found a home as a pass catcher and could be Brady’s top target Sunday. Brandon LaFell presents a bit of an upgrade at the veteran starting wide receiver spot. The only position group with a much different look is the running backs. BenJarvus Green-Ellis led a ragtag committee approach in 2011 that was never considered much of a threat. The Patriots’ employed a similar approach for much of this year until LeGarrette Blount walked out on the Pittsburgh Steelers and fell into New England’s lap. After Blount’s 148-yard, three-touchdown performance in the AFC Championship Game, the Seahawks will surely be taking him more seriously than the New York Giants took the LawFirm. Five other offensive players are making their second trip to the Super Bowl with the Patriots in RB Shane Vereen, WR Matthew Slater, and offensive linemen Sebastian Vollmer, Ryan Wendell, and Marcus Cannon. On the defensive side of the ball, three starters haven’t moved on from 2011, highlighted by the immovable Vince Wilfork. Now 33-years-old, Wilfork is actually playing at a higher level this year than in 2011, his run defence numbers up more than 14 points according to Pro Football Focus, a good thing with a heavy dose of Marshawn Lynch expected to come his way Sunday. Rob Ninkovich remains alongside Wilfork and the new cast, highlighted by impressive linebacker Dont’a Hightower, presents an upgrade over the front seven of three years ago. While there is some name recognition on the left column in the front seven, those veterans have mostly been replaced by younger, hungrier players. Devin McCourty returns as a starter in the secondary and is joined by Kyle Arrington, who lost his starting spot along the way, and Patrick Chung. The addition of Darrelle Revis of course tips the scale in favour of this year’s ssquad. Karl Joseph College Jersey. Stephen Gostkowski leads a similar looking special teams unit as well, although while his long snapper Danny Aiken remains, punter Zoltan Mesko has been replaced by Ryan Allen. Mesko’s 46.5-yard average on punts in 2011 is almost identical to Allen’s 46.4-yard average this year. See the full roster comparison from Super Bowl XLVI to XLIX below.
