Wells has been red hot recently too. If he could manage to perform on the same level as he has the last 3 years (on average) then perhaps we could do some damage. Jays will most likely no re-sign Millar, MacDonald, Bautista...so maybe they can bring in someone that's half decent to fill in the utility spot. They also need a decent 3rd baseman because Encarnacion will not do the job, even though he's been hot the last week and a half. If jays can somehow (doubt it lol) sign Holliday to replace Overbay then this lineup will destroy other teams next year.
IMO the bullpen has been very disappointing, giving up a lot of runs in late innings from May until end of August...maybe they'll bounce back next year.
agree with everything here except for maybe Overbay
Millar has been absolutely awful for us. Everytime we had a runner on 3rd and 1 out, Millar would just kill it. Im not a fan of Johnny Mac... I know he's a fan favorite, but I think Bautista is a much better utility player... he can at least hit the ball.
Encarnacion is definitely a concern at the 3rd base spot... his fielding skills are awful... maybe we were just spoiled with Scott Rolens fantastic plays everytime he took the field lol.
next season the rotation should be:
1) Doc (hopefully)
2) Ricky Romero
3) Dustin McGowan
4) Brett Cecil
5) wide open...
that #5 spot is up for grabs in my opinion... but if jesse litch can come back from tommy john, i saw give it to him and put marc zep in the bullpen.
Randy Ruiz at DH??? d1g1t
