Blue Jays sign Michael Bourn to minor league deal

[gbill2004]

He could be a real demon on the base paths.

Might as well send an email off to DeWayne Wise while we're at it.

 

Can Joey Gathright still jump over a car?

[Boxcar]

I'm surprised Shatkins wanted him at all. A reminder of a number of useless contracts they gave away.

 

It's actually pretty funny that Shapiro was the boss in Cleveland when they signed him to what looked like a shrewd deal at the time and then he completely s*** the bed. I'd find it hard to not be bitter lol.

[Boxcar]

Ha, there aren't many useful tools on the bench at all.

 

Thole - catching a knuckleball

Barney - playing defense at 2nd

Colabello - N/A

Carrera - N/A

 

Too many people hating on Barney in this piece. He's a pretty good bench player and he's got that mixed Asian attractiveness.

Yeah, he's really the only acceptable piece on the current bench.

Did he literally s*** in Shapiro's bed in his home? If so, wow!

Nyjer Morgan still in jair?

Problem is there is another bench piece starting at 2nd base.

[Angrioter]

He's better than Goins

[gbill2004]

He's better than Goins

 

Goins and Gibby are drinking buddies though, so that's why Goins starts.

I knew that would excite you

Hopefully, they are doing this with the expectation of replacing Carrerra and not just to cover for the injuries in AAA.

 

is Ceciliani still injured? I take him over both Carrera and Bourn

There's room for both when Devo comes back. Together they can offer very good D at every infield position. A shame we are stuck with Thole, you'd think finding someone even marginally better would be stupid easy.

Finding someone worse would definitely take an effort

All I know is that he's on the DL.

Why would you want both when Travis is back? Thats just as much a waste of a roster spot. Like it or not we're stuck with Thole cuz of Dickey.

[o2cui2i]

I know. Just don't know what's wrong. He was great during ST. He got injured after. they kept Carrera because he's out of options... still a stupid move. Hope Ceciliani gets back on the field and gets a chance.

[gbill2004]

Well that's pretty crazy if it actually happened.

Why the f*** is Travis referred to as Devo? There's only one Devo and he's retired along with the name. Can you youngens get a little more f***ing creative?

His teammates call him Devo, heck, it's in his twitter name.

[fatcowxlive]

We don't need him we got Ezequiel "4-5" Carerra

Gruber would love to live in 1992 and 1993 forever. It should be illegal to name your kid Devon.

It takes far too much effort for us youngins to pronounce his full name.

[KingKat]

Kind of reminds me of when Ivan Rodriguez started going by the nickname "Pudge". People thought it was weird and even a little wrong because that was Carlton Fisk's nickname but eventually everyone just got used to it and forgot that there was ever even a controversy.
