Despite their post-season success, the Blue Jays had many ups and downs during the regular season. The Jays started off winning the first six games of the regular season and
Roberto Alomar was named the AL Player of the Month for the month of April. On August 25, they had lost six of their last seven games and were only two games ahead of the
Baltimore Orioles in the standings. At this point, general manager
Pat Gillick decided to acquire a fiery right-hander from the
New York Mets named
David Cone. The trade resulted in the Jays sending minor league prospect
Ryan Thompson and utility infielder
Jeff Kent to the Mets. The deal sent the message that the Blue Jays were committed to winning. Cone would have 4 wins, 3 losses and a 2.55 ERA. The regular season also marked the end of the road for
Dave Stieb, who made his last start for the Blue Jays on August 8 and only lasted three innings. On September 23, Stieb announced that he was finished for the season. 1992 was Stieb's final season for the Jays before briefly coming out of retirement years later. Four days later, on September 27, Jack Morris would make club history by becoming the first pitcher in franchise history to win 20 games in a season. Morris would have to wait through a two-hour rain delay at
Yankee Stadium to get the win.
