Blue Jays acquire Ben Revere

[TwistedLogic]

[pickoff22]

Unlike most, I like what he brings to this team. Let's hope the return isn't too high.

[burlingtonbandit]

Seems like a good LH OF who shouldn't be too expensive. Really like what the Jays have done so far today. He can also play CF which is nice since Pillar seems like he could use a day off once in a while. Works well with Jays being so RH heavy.

[nowayjose]

Holy s***.

[fatcowxlive]

If we give up anything significant it's stupid IMO. I would have much rather Pompey up

[saskjayfan]

so is aa done now...lol

[Sammy225]

I am going to do flips if Bello is going the other way

[RealAccountant]

f*** lol if this team doesn't go to the playoffs AA is not to blame

[bowld]

ALL IN

 

cf

AA did a good job, but damn we better not be paying too much for Revere.

[jayswin11]

All on the players and Gibby now. No excuses. Good work AA

[Travis_Snider]

f***ing right

[guylaroche5]

RIP pompey

[Sammy225]

How good is a platoon of Revere and Danny V

[Dr. Dinger]

I like Revere as a #9 hitter. If we bat him leadoff, that I have a problem with.

[jayswin11]

AA's body of work this year should get him an extension.

[burlingtonbandit]

Do you guys bat Revere leadoff vs RHP?

 

112 wRC+ vs RHP this year

[reedjohnsonfan]

Nice! Revere is a good player and fits in perfectly.

Great #9 hitter

[bowld]

He brings speed to the base paths that we lost in Reyes. I like the move assuming we didnt give up much

[Dr. Dinger]

112 wRC+ vs RHP this year

 

I'd still rather give those PAs to someone with a good OBP, namely Martin or Bautista.

in b4 pic of AA's ass.

He's going to be that #9 'leadoff' hitter where there's speed at the bottom of the lineup. If not I too will have a problem lol

I am going to do flips if Bello is going the other way

 

No dude with this move we want to keep Bello because this will keep him on the bench more where he can be used as a PH. The guys swings a nice bat.

[Dr. Dinger]

Having said that, Revere has a .370 OBP over the last month...

[Travis_Snider]

Either way its a upgrade

Colabello is regressing as expected. Those PAs need to start going to Smoak.

He's batting leadoff cause speed

[MunenoriKawasakiMVP]

AA is an all-star. He's done everything possible for the Jays. Even if we don't make the playoffs he should stay

[jayswin11]

Cola is a nice bench piece, depth. For years we have been saying we need depth now we have it. Keep him. Having Smoak and Cola on bench is kinda like Tabby and Mulliniks back in da day
