Everyone wants in on the Toronto Blue Jays these days.

The American League East leaders welcomed one of hockey's biggest stars onto the field Friday, as local boy and Tampa Bay Lightning superstar Steven Stamkos donned the team's colors and took part in batting practice.

Here's a closer look at how he looks in Toronto colors.

Earlier this summer, Stamkos attended a Blue Jays game while wearing the cap of the visiting Tampa Bay Rays, and he has partaken in batting practice with his hockey home team as well, so where his true allegiance lies is anyone's guess.

Despite the fact Stamkos is set to become an unrestricted free agent next summer, surely the hockey world won't read too much into this.
