Today is the last game in Dunedin. .We’ll see you next season boys- let’s hope the April vote passes and they stay in Pinellas county-enjoy the concrete and fake greenery.
To me with the exception of the infield this looks like they listed the guys who made the opening day roster and then the extras who wont.
Guys like Donaldson and Travis are missing likely to give them mores rest and we know the plan for Biagini to be in AAA so we know he isn't making the roster.
This is my guess based on this potentially meaningless organized list;
C: Martin
1B: Smoak
2B: Travis
SS: Diaz
3B: Donaldson
RF: Grichuk
CF: Pillar
LF: Granderson
DH: Morales
C: Maile
INF: Solarte
INF: Espinosa
OF: Pearce
Happ
Sanchez
Estrada
Stroman
Garcia
Osuna
Oh
Barnes
Axford
Clippard
Loup
Mayza
Notables left off are Tepera, Hernandez, and Gift if you think he was making it.
If Morales is only good enough to DH against lefties then its getting harder and harder to justify his role on this team.
I mean, pinch hitting i guess.

I mean, he was a negative value player last year for a reason. He hurts the team, he doesn't help him. Unless somehow he manages to rebound...or just go on a fluke hot streak or something.
Imagine how much everyone would Actually hate AA if Nicolino was the one of the lansing three he keptReds claim Justin Nicolino off waivers from the Marlins
is this something that may change the way MLB teams deal with prospects? on the radio they were talking like it could, teams will typically go to arb with prospects until a certain age right?
I'm not really expecting much from the Jays this year. It seems like too much has to go right for us to make the playoffs. All I hope is that our prospects continue to develop and we get a good haul for our impending free agents at the trade deadline.
Been happening now for several years. Jon Singleton is still getting paid because of it. The guys on the radio are likely just baiting. Its nothing really new.
All that said...if you're in a fantasy league, buy Scott Kingery shares. He's going to be fun.

If your not expecting much from the Jays this season then you shouldn't be expecting too much from the Red Sox or Yankees either as they have just as many questions surrounding their lineup as the Jays do. The season is a long one, and for the first time in a long time the Jays seem to be covered depth wise better both positionally and in the rotation/bullpen. The Jays should be in the middle of the division race and wild card race all season.
Last 2yrs
Morales 85wrc+ vRHP, 155wrc+ vLHP
Pearce 109wrc+ vRHP, 133wrc+ vLHP
Pearce should play every day, at DH vRHP and LF vLHP.
Morales should only play at DH vLHP.
You are Atkins and Vladdy and Bo's agents come to you today saying they would sign $100M over 10 years - who's signing them?
