I don't like the lack of Biggio and Grichuk in the lineup today.

 

Edit: Nevermind, Grichuk DHing. Though... Drury in RF is silly.

He’s got to keep that 2+ WHIP going! There’s a difference between rebuilding/letting the young guys play and purposely losing...starting Jackson fits the latter.

 

Rather finish 28th than 20th

Whats not to like about Sogard??

 

I can see a contender wanting him by trading deadline as a utility INF'er

In theory that sounds good but it would mean that basically nothing goes right. If we finish 20th that means that something positive like Gurriel established himself or Thornton had a good year or something. And it will be that much harder to climb to the top from 28th than 20th.

Yup. The 10 extra wins or whatever that separate 28th from 20th mean our young roster was 10 wins better. That means a lot more for the future than the difference between 3rd and 11th in the draft.

Understood, but other than a few guys, the Jays of the future contender are not on the club today, they are in the minors or yet to be acquired.

But not necessarily true if they're 10 wins better as a whole. In your preferred scenario, that's absolutely true though.

If Stro and Giles are moved for futures, a 100 loss season is not a reflection on Vlad, Jansen, Biggio.
