Jose

[mellowgold]

No, not him. The better Jose. As in Reyes. Yes, it's a 36-game sample size but dude is putting up some kind of numbers. We all know about his contact/on base/speed skills, but I have to admit, I had to do a double take when I noticed he's outSLUGGING everyone on the team outside of Edwin. Really tough to totally hate the Marlins trade when we get to enjoy a player like this (even though we should probably move him to 2B next year).

He's great on offense, has a cannon of an arm but his lack of trying to dive into balls on defense is frustrating to say the least.

Injury prone will be his weakness

Great player. If Lawrie and Reyes and Bautista play 420+ healthy games in 2014, in which they are really healthy (no injury related tanks)... that would be a start. I would venture to say I would be very confident we would make the playoffs... but this team never ceases to surprise me. Everyone else would put up a .250 oba or something.

Incredibly small sample size, but Reyes should hit enough doubles (and triples) to keep a very respectable SLG over his Jays career. I don't expect him to pile up the homers though.

Still need starting pitching that isn't mindbottlingly terrible.

A post with lawrie as a possible reason

for making the playoffs is humorous

indeed. If the jays go to the playoffs

with lawrie on team, would be in spite

of lawrie.

While Jose Reyes is no Craig Grebeck but he's alright

He has to hit above his career average in order to be an above average SS (his defense is mild)

You're f***ed.

I would like him at second base next year. Hes played second base in the past. He doesn't have the range to play a great shortstop. Great arm but average range and I haven't seen him dive for a ball. Brendan Ryan might be an option at SS. I know he can't hit. But he gets to everything and more.

 

Baseball politics will not allow this to happen unfortunately.

I will settle for nothing less then Alex Guerrero

I'm betting on the Dodgers nabbing him

Thought you meant Canseco who was in town Thursday for a stag and got trashed and played underground poker all night. Oh ya, and got turned down by the Jays for a stadium pass or even free tickets. Also blown off regarding his Rogers Centre softball HR contest for charity idea. Talk about distancing yourself from a former player!
