My PROFILE has my pic, when I'm logged in. But when I'm not logged in, I can't see it. I have no idea why.

 

EDIT: Fixed.

 

I would hate to throw away Jeffress, but unless we free up the log jam, there isn't a choice.

I have three older brothers. Y'all don't have anything I haven't seen before.

 

But anyway, being a sports nut (NFL, CFL and MLB - hate hockey) and a woman, I'm used to this. Trust me.

 

Anyway....

You, on the other hand, have something some of the boys here have never seen before.

If Rasmus is healthy, and with 4 off days, we might not need gose till May.

 

I really wish we still had davis.

 

+1 for that. Davis brought a lot to the table for a bench player. I think they're going to miss him this year. Sierra is not a good 4th OF option and Gose hasn't shown a whole lot IMO.

Davis was a useful bench piece.

 

But let's be honest....we weren't matching 2 years and 10 million that the Tigers gave him. ( Plus more playing time in LF)

Yeah that's a lot for a 4th outfielder. It does go to show that he was a very useful player though. Defensively he was pretty underrated around here. But the reality the Jays are facing now is that not only do they not have a 4th OFer but they don't have any depth. Their offence looks nice if everyone stays healthy, but they literally have nobody who can step into an everyday role if someone gets hurt.

I don't even think it's prohibitive for a 4th OF. Davis impacts games late with his speed, can play all 3 OF positions at a close to average level, and can even DH against LHP. I wasn't on board for 2/10 at the time because I thought someone else would be brought in, but Davis at that salary makes the team better than it is right now.

 

Yes.

 

However it's prohibitive when your paying the salaries of the likes of Buehrle and Reyes and you have corporate ownership and meh attendance.

Sucks that Happ is making $5.4 million this year. We could have Jeff Francis and Davis for the same price.

 

Or Capuano

 

Sorry

And yet by the end of the offseason AA was searching under every rock for a RHB who could play CF as a backup. Weird

That's a fair point you have to look at who he's replacing... in this case it's Sierra who probably shouldn't be in the majors.

Elliott: 2 spots in the rotation up for grabs

 

http://www.torontosun.com/2014/03/03/two-spots-in-the-jays-rotation-up-for-grabs

“We were allergic to the strike zone,” manager John Gibbons said.

 

Starter J.A. Happ faced seven men and retired one.

 

Dustin McGowan allowed three runs in an inning of work.

 

And Kyle Drabek allowed four runs, three when Kenny Wilson lost a fly ball third out in the sun.

"Is there a chance both Drew Hutchison and Marcus Stroman could open the season in the Jays rotation behind R.A. Dickey, Brandon Morrow and Mark Buehrle?Yep. There’s a chance."

 

Well that's nice but that quote isn't attributed to anyone. This is Elliott acting like he has news when he really doesn't. He saw what everybody else saw, Happ was awful and he infers from it that the 4th spot is open.

Yeah nothing from the team on this issue really yet

It is sad. Not only the initial posts but the follow up "lol" posts and likes that only encourage this type of behavior shouldn't be a part of this board.

 

I don't really see it that way. I saw the lol as laughing at the poster and his dumb post rather than laughing with him but I guess that's open to interpretation.
