Adam Lind

Heard rumors that the Bluejays might let him go. Would we or should we try and make a move for him? I would love to try him in left field next year.

Lind will be a BlueJay for a long time. Matty Stairs should never, ever be legimitly be mentioned as a reason to trade away a prospect/player of Adam Linds caliper. Stairs would make a nice backup RF/LFer/DH. Reed Johnson will probably not be back next year. That said Reed Johnson might not be a bad player to try and target for a platoon mate for Gabe Gross, if the Brewers plan to go that route for LF next year.

 

The guys at BlueJayway.ca will get a chuckle out of that rumor.

I think theres more to that rumor.

Matt Stairs and Corey Hart are comparable offensive players, though I hope Corey keeps getting better. To think this kid will step in and be as good as Hart and Stairs is probably a bit pie-in-the-sky.

 

As noted, blocked guys like this are excellent trade targets, however.

 

On a related note, i feel bad for TOR, they are almost identical W/L wise as the Crew, but they are in the wrong division.
