Blue Jays Should Target Lopez for 3B
Blue Jays Should Target Lopez for 3B
jayszone93.wordpress.com — Sometimes in order to build a successful future you should occasionally look to your past, and this... off-season target would accomplish just that. Felipe Lopez would make a great addition to the Blue Jays infield, preferably at third base, he would also be a great add to the top of the batting order (more) Blue Jays Should Target Lopez for 3B
JP Ricciardi - In Defense
JP Ricciardi - In Defense
jayszone93.wordpress.com — JP Ricciardi was not a perfect GM, far from it, but I think to place all the... blame on one man and not take into account the many factors that go into building a championship baseball team is extremely short-sighted and judgemental. The next GM will have the same problems, issues and handicaps. (more) JP Ricciardi - In Defense
Jays Should Target SP Nolasco in Off-Season
Jays Should Target SP Nolasco in Off-Season
jayszone93.wordpress.com — The first player on my off-season wish list is SP Ricky Nolasco. I know what you are... thinking, the first player the Blue Jays should be attempting to land is a pitcher coming off a 13-9, 5.06 ERA season – I must be crazy, or stupid. Well, you just helped my case if you felt it would be crazy! (more) Jays Should Target SP Nolasco in Off-Season
Marco Scutaro Worth It?
Marco Scutaro Worth It?
jayszone93.wordpress.com — Marco Scutaro has been the most valuable Blue Jays position player this season, combining a solid glove... at SS with his improved bat to post a 4.3 WAR. Aaron Hill is a close second with a 3.9 WAR and while Adam Lind has been the best overall hitter, his relatively poor defence and work as a DH/LF. (more) Marco Scutaro Worth It?
Ricky Romero vs JA Happ
Ricky Romero vs JA Happ
jayszone93.wordpress.com — According to some reports, the Phillies would only include Happ or Kyle Drabek, but not both. He... was even considered by some the integral piece in any potential trade and I found myself asking the same question over and over, why? On the surface, it appears Happ is having a pretty solid season. (more) Ricky Romero vs JA Happ
Travis Snider Still Cruz-in?
Travis Snider Still Cruz-in?
jayszone93.wordpress.com — Nothing quite captures the imagination of baseball fans like the rise of a top prospect through the... minor league system and (hopefully) into the major leagues. There is nothing like the intoxicating allure of a fresh faced and well hyped youngster to get the old proverbial baseball juices flowing. (more) Travis Snider Still Cruz-in?

Comparing the AL East 2B in 2009
jayszone93.wordpress.com — Toronto Blue Jays 2B Aaron Hill is having a career year at the age of 27, the... age most players historically tend to have one of their best overall seasons. Hill has enjoyed a huge spike in power this year with 32 HRs (1 better than Chase Utley) as he has also seen his HR/FB double his career mark. (more) Comparing the AL East 2B in 2009
Theo Epstein Offered What?
Theo Epstein Offered What?
jayszone93.wordpress.com — Never mind the fact they [Red Sox] would have essentially kissed their trade for Victor Martinez goodbye... but factor in that they would have been trading 5 young, cheap and talented pitchers for a year and half rental of Roy Halladay and it just makes very little sense.

Randy Ruiz - The Next Andruw Jones?
Randy Ruiz - The Next Andruw Jones?
jayszone93.wordpress.com — Randy Ruiz has been a feel good story for a Blue Jays team and fan base in... desperate need of something positive to hang their hat on, and there is nothing wrong with that. As opposed to anointing him our DH of the future (or even for 2010) let’s enjoy the ride but also take it for what it’s worth. (more) Randy Ruiz - The Next Andruw Jones?

The Umpire(s) Strike Back!
jayszone93.wordpress.com — “We were out in the tent (a beer garden just across the street from the ballpark) having... beers before the game," the pair explains. “They thought we were the real guys (umpires) going to get juiced up before the game. We were like ‘No, no, we’re not gonna be on the field tonight, we’re just fans.’” (more) The Umpire(s) Strike Back!

Roy Halladay - A Case for Malpractice?
jayszone93.wordpress.com — :Another popular opinion making the rounds was that Roy’s arm was getting tired or being overused. What’s... more amazing is not just how well Halladay has been pitching but who he was pitching well against. His past 7 starts have lined up like this: NYY, BAL, @TB, BOS, TB, @BOS, and NYY."
