All right my Blue Jays faithful, when I was a little kid, I saw the two World Series wins, I really want to get back into watching this team, and becoming a fan again.

Can someone give me a nice preview of the season, who are the best players, who are the new players, Who are the worst, how are the prospects, etc..

I would really appreciate it

the line up looks good, right now our Starting Pitching Staff is lacking, we need to trade for an Ace

We've got a stacked lineup full of young guys that have done nothing but produce in the minors and are beginning to translate their success to the majors.

Bichette & Guerrero are the two future superstars that were top-10 (or in Vlads case #1) prospects a few years ago. Bichette has been amazing in the majors, Guerrero has been... disappointing. With his weight loss, age, and spring numbers people believe this is the breakout season. Just needs to keep the ball off the ground.

Biggio, Teo, Gurriel Jr, and Rowdy are the other "young" studs that are in a bit of a tier lower than Bo & Vlad, but all of those guys had an amazing season last year (especially Teo, Gurriel, and Biggio) and we all hope continue their success this season. Don't see why they can't as their numbers were sustainable and Teo hits the ball as hard as anyone.

Jansen is a borderline elite defender with ridiculously good minor hitting numbers that hasn't translated to the majors yet. The underlying numbers have showed there is improvement to come, but nothings guaranteed. Kirk has done nothing but hit since he's been signed by the Jays. Looks like an absolute stud.

Springer and Semien are obviously the big acquisitions. Springer is a top-10 hitter in baseball and plays a premium position well. Semien was a MVP candidate in 2019, but had a really bad start to 2020 and it "ruined" his numbers for the rest of his good season.

Grichuk sucks. Davis is temporary. Panik will play too much.

Ryu is the ace. Nate is arguably the best pitching prospect in baseball if he can stay healthy. Stripling has been amazing except for 2020. Ray can't throw strikes, but if he can limit walks he's a ridiculously good pitcher. Roark is garbage. Zeuch probably isn't much.

Romano, Merryweather, and Dolis are probably the best relievers.

The prospect system is top5 in baseball with guys like Martin, Groshans, SWR, Manoah all real close to being ready to contribute. Great depth in the system but there's also guys like Kloff, Orlevis, and Moreno who would be top-5 or better in most teams systems.

Charlie Montoyo will make you shake your head constantly and wondering what the f*** is going on in his brain.
