Michael Saunders应该是会休到8月了...
On the plus side, the Blue Jays have the luxury of waiting until later in
spring to see if they have to do something. They have lefty bats in camp to
potentially replace Saunders’ own lefty bat, and to potentially platoon with
Kevin Pillar. Namely, they are Andy Dirks, Caleb Gindl, Chris Colabello,
Chris Dickerson, and Ezequiel Carrera. The latter two, along with Pillar,
could also spell expected starting center fielder, Dalton Pompey,
defensively. Perhaps infielder Danny Valencia, a right handed hitter who
crushes lefties could get reps in the outfield too and becomes a super
utility guy. Surely, too much is up in the air to make any rash decisions
right now.
Kevin Pillar,Andy Dirks, Caleb Gindl, Chris Colabello, Chris Dickerson,
and Ezequiel Carrera这几人可以站外野
至于内野手Danny Valencia是左杀,所以对方左投时也可能站站LF
On the transaction front, the Jays could look to acquire free agent OF Dayan
Viciedo (RHH) or trade for Padres’ OF/DH Carlos Quentin (RHH, who is owed
$8M this year and has a mutual option for 2016), but both lack positional
flexibility. Sure, they could DH, but their defense would be lacking should
they ever have to play left field.
nother intriguing option that I like may lie in Padres’ OF Will Venable who
can play any outfield spot admirably and is making only $4.25M in his final
year before free agency. He’s been worth at least 2 WAR for four of the past
five years and is a solid player.
然后可能会考虑签下Viciedo或交易教士的Quentin、Venable
但Quentin要$8M、Venable只要$4.25M而且过去五年有四年缴出2WAR的绩效
蓝鸟可能会交易Dioner Navarro用他的 $5M salary来换取些薪资空间

但文中认为Pillar能胜任外野各位置守备
而短暂的MLB生涯成绩根据他小联盟以来的打击也不会只是个 .239 的打者
本身OF不考虑交易的话
应该就是包爷/Pompey/Pillar第4号就看春训表现了
内野部份
蓝鸟有一堆工具人Izturis/Valencia/Tolleson/川崎/Goins要抢先发2B
还有潜力2B Travis在拼春训后站大联盟
closer可能是B.Cecil西索也可能是Aaron Sanchez
Aaron Sanchez这只顶级新秀如何使用是一大问题
当SP被认为控球还要修,当RP又嫌浪费天份
总之
2B、OF的2.3.4号(也必须要预防新秀Pompey撞墙)、RP(set-up和closer)
蓝鸟春训前后还有多工作待解决...
