What's Francisco going to make, like $3 million? You can reasonably expect him somewhere in the 105-115 wRC+ range vs. RHP, and he can play 3B without butchering it. That makes him an asset on a team with an injury-prone DH that still needs his option picked up, and an injury-prone 3B that might not even play 3B next year. I think he should be offered arb.

He's nothing to be excited about.

 

But for a guy on the bench who can hit RHP at an above average clip is useful IMO.

 

He's not the kind of guy you want coming off the bench though. He strikes out above 35% of the time and is limited to a corner infield and can't hit lefties at all. He is also going to make at least 3 million$ in arb.

Refreshing words from Gibby:

 

 

Runs have been hard to come by for the Blue Jays this month but manager John Gibbons doesn't want to see his hitters change their approach especially when it comes to some of the bigger names in the lineup.

 

One example that sticks out occurred Sunday vs. the White Sox when Jose Reyes led off the game with a double and was then bunted over to third base by Melky Cabrera.

 

It was a selfless act by Cabrera, but also not the smartest idea according to his manager. Toronto did get the one run but there was the potential for much more, especially since Cabrera has been among the league leaders in hits all season.

 

"You don't want to do that, that early," Gibbons said Tuesday afternoon. "One of the best hitters, hottest hitters. Go for the big inning. Sometimes you play for one run, that's all you get, and we barely got that.

 

"He was trying to be a team guy and get us on the board. That early, you're looking at a big inning, especially the way he's swinging it."

Yup. Exactly.

Can't MLSE take over for Rogers...

 

Why? You want to push the Blue Jays non-championship seasons to 48 in a row? Plus Rogers owns part of MLSE I believe, so we would be doubly f***ed!!!

Ugh. Good bye everyone. Should I even bother to watch tomorrow...

 

Entirely up to you, but I wouldn't let other plans get in the way of the game.

Hate to say it but **** this team. I'm keeping an eye on the Mariners and Royals.

 

Oh, and the Brewers are sure doubling their pleasure and fun.. 7 doubles tonight! Either that's due to bad D, poor pitching, or this weird ballpark, which is a hitter's park.

2pm start. Crack open a few cold ones and just watch some ball. Worst case you pass out drooling on the coach pillows.

So, if the Royals manage to make the playoffs this year, will that make the Jays the only team in the past 20 not to make at least one appearance?
