This from the Toronto Sun

DUNEDIN — Twitter doesn’t much interest John Farrell but a number of his Blue Jay players are tweeting on a regular basis.

Farrell isn’t about to put restrictions on his players, but he is wary.

“I don’t tweet and I don’t plan to,” he said.“We make (players) aware of some of the pitfalls. We do what we can to educate all of our players on social media.”

“It’s part of our everyday lives so we’re not going to say they can’t do it. But I think they’ve got to be careful if they’re going to engage in it.

“My own opinion is that for a player to be involved in that, they set themselves up for another distraction.”
