Why? All you guys do is bitch about how bad Smoak, Upton, and Thole are. Now I'm agreeing with you and I'm dumb lol.
Right now its hard to imagine it getting worse than that.
That has to be the worst 6-9 in Baseball at the moment. I eagerly await the day when Upton can be used properly. Probably won't happen until next year.
The report on McGuire is that he's atleast a full season away. And that has more to do with his bat that the Blue Jays will probably will want to try a little longer to develop. If its not Thole its Kratz or Jimenez. Apparently Jimenez has rebuilt some value in the organization because hes been name dropped by Atkins mutiple times.
So 3 years later he will want to play on turf?The Yankees tried to talk him into full time DH. He insisted on playing the field. He was actually hurt earlier in the year and that's why he played DH. He will go somewhere that lets him play OF. Teams will live with him LF or RF to get his bat in the lineup.
Atleast we don't have to face Tanaka. We usually always get Tanaka. Have to take care of business. Red Sox are coming and the Orioles just keep finding ways to hang around.
That doesn't mean he doesn't want to play for the Blue Jays. He was also very vocal about the Raptors playoff run. And when he won MVP was upset the letter from the Prime Minister was "lost in the mail". He said if this was from Barrack Obama he would have recieved it the same day it was sent.
Hes played with the Reds his entire career and they are paying him a s*** load of money. It's natural to say you don't want to leave.
