Is it time for Drabek to go down and find the strike zone?

It is frustating watching the Jays run up 7, 8 or 9 runs in one game (with everyone hitting), only to turn around and watch the whole team suck at the plate the next game.

I had been optimistic about the starting pitching and bullpen, but other than middle relief things are not looking good.

Jose. Swing slower... seems the only thing he has changed is that he is trying to murder the ball...

I have said it before, but it is worth saying again. Is there anyone except the BlueJays management who thought Aaron Hill was going to be better than your average 2nd basemen? He just doesn't have the tools at the plate or the plate discipline. He'll be a .260 hitter with a sucky OBP until he is a utility player somewhere, and I am not sure how the Jays didn't know this.

hill is an excellent defensive 2b, and probably a slightly below league average hitter who's shown flashes of brilliance. utility player is a massive stretch.

yeah pretty outrageous statement there.

So that's 2 people believing they can win a ship with him at 2nd.

Cool cool.

if he was batting 8th. there are a few things more to take care of before championship talk though.

Sign Reyes, move Escobar to 2B --> win.

If St Louis can win with Skip Schumaker, we can win with Aaron Hill.

Bautista's UZR went from like +2 to -3 in about 3 games. I guess that's what happens when a team has a babip of .500+ vs you.

We're sending down prospects at an alarming rate. Maybe they should wait to call up Lawrie so they don't have to send him back down next May.

It really is pretty sick to think about how we'd be doing if Drabek, Cecil or Snyder were doing anything close to expectation.
Toronto Blue Jays: AL BEast Champions Quote

not sure where you want to put them. If Snider is in the lineup, Patterson is probably out. If Drabek or Cecil were doing well, Jojo is probably the oddman, and he's been the 2nd best starter so far.

Plus you could exchange those 3 names for mostly any team, as everybody goes through something like this.

Oh sure, bring reason into the discussion.
