Casper the Friendly Ghost has spoken! So too has Stan!
Apologies to all the boomers, Gen Xers, and Zoomers, but this is about to get very 90s.
Devon Sawa, 90's heartthrob, twice a love interest for Christina Ricci, Eminem's stalker, and hardcore baseball fan of both the Toronto Blue Jays and Los Angeles Dodgers, has taken to X to voice his displeasure at the Blue Jays nothingness this offseason.
For pop culture-loving and cinephile millennials, Sawa is probably familiar to you as the title character - in human form - of the 90's cult classic Casper, co-starring Christina Ricci, Bill Pullman, and Eric Idle.
That same year, he starred opposite Ricci again, playing bully-turned-lover Scott Wormer in the iconic Now and Then, a film with it's own legendary baseball (okay, softball) fight.
For those who weren't that nerdy but were into hip hop (like every good 90's kid was at some point) and fell in love with rap god Eminem, Sawa may be familiar to you as the titular stalker in the music video for one of the greatest songs to ever exist - Stan. That word has now also the entered modern lexicon and cultural zeitgeist as slang for obsessed fan.
Speaking of being a fan, Sawa's X feed is filled with baseball-related tweets about his two favourite teams, the Blue Jays and Dodgers. He recently posted about the Dodgers trade of Gavin Lux, as well saying that Toronto fans should march down to the offices of Atkins and Shapiro and demand answers.
Sawa also a new film, Heart Eyes about to drop. It's a horror film, but it's probably less scary then what awaits the Blue Jays if they continue to do nothing.
Clearly Casper/Scott/Stan/Devon feels the pain of Blue Jays fans. Hopefully a free agent signing will have tweeting positive Blue Jays messages.
At any rate, the sexy ghost has spoken. You move Atkins.
