I believe if the players J.P. brought in play like they should we can finally compete for the east title, or least the wild card.

Any thoughts, good or bad?

    95 wins would be great, it would also be nice to be in the hunt late in the season, I'm sick of the season being over in August.

    Me too. Hopefully, this Jays' team can remain competitive right up until the end.

    well since i don't cheer on the raptors and the leafs are (*gasp*) starting to lose my support, i'll need a new t-dot team to root for. looks like it'll be the jays.

    One of your new acquisitions is a HUGE PJ fan. Lyle Overbay is a huge PJ fan. I'm a Cubs fan but have gone to many Cubs - Brewers games in Milwaukee and everytime he would come to the plate they would play PJ, usually "Leash" and "Porch".

  • Brandon League has some nasty stuff
  • They've got a rock solid lineup this season, I wouldn't be surprised if they turn some heads.

    Contenders in my book.

  • i think they need one more year- for the jays, for the bosox pitching to get even older, and for the yanks to suck again.

    jays should be in it mathmatically til oh, about september 20th, but i dont see them making the playoffs.

    in 2007 though, look out

    They need to get rid of their weak link in right field. (hinske) I've heard from inside scources that J.P. found someone to take his salary. should be gone before Opening day.

    lol umm last I checked Hinske isn't an outfielder. He is first and third base my friend.

    Well i am forced to watch every spring training game and so far he's been trackin fly's out in right. You might want to double check before you second guess me.

    ACC's right, he plays the corners...but maybe he's been playin in the field ACC.

    Dude up to the end of last season he was first and third base...so cut the attitude cause we're BOTH right in this case. JP is prob trying to find a place for him I guess. I can't see it being in the OF though...since we already have Catalanato (sp) Johnson, Vernon, and Rios lined up for the OF.
    For the record I don't give a damn what they do in Spring Training...its what happens from April to October that I care about.

    Suck again? You mean like they did in 1992 again?

    Dont worry theres no attitude here. Just thought I'd throw in two cents and maybe provide some information. If you don't want it, thats fine by me.
  • hinske is now a right fielder. he was moved to the outfield this season because they have far too many corner players that are better than him. they are gonna use him and rios in right and johnson and catalanotto in left with wells in centre.
    now they have too many good outfielders to shuffle! these are the types of problems i like to see :)
