Can't wait!
Yeah was surprised to see Carrera in too
Any word on Travis's status?
Ya baseball for real, this is amazing. Must admit I am kind of surprised to see Pearce at first, makes one wonder are they showing Pagan, there is a spot here for the taking, but we won't just give it to you?
Curious about Carrerra over Smoak. The impression I have had all spring is they want to give Smoak regular at bats, with Pierce in LF.

He's playing second and batting lead off.
Is it just me or does it seem like Jonah Keri really likes to hate on the Blue Jays? He was tolerable before but now I honestly want the Expos to come back so I won't have to see or hear from him as often as I do.

If Pompey isn't going to be given a shot, the OF lacks depth. Pagan would be nice but it sounds like he needs to be guaranteed a full time gig
His heelish turn is, IMO, attributed to the front office change (not dissimilar to some of the posters around these parts). Its no secret he's a big Expos guy, and he knows which front office people around baseball are still around from that executive tree.
That said, his major criticisms of the franchise this offseason are\were (i) The Edwin situation (ii) the current situation at 1B (iii) the current situation in LF...which are all low hanging fruit if you're seeking clicks\eyes.
Not sure what the plan is for Pompey, do they see him as an everyday player? There seems to be mixed opinions from what I have read, not that you can go by that.
I listened to Brunt and Blair all morning. They also had some of the regular baseball reporters/commentators on the show and the general consensus is that Pompey is currently not in the plans and essentially will have to go out and force them to add him to the team by playing extremely well in Buffalo.
I understand the sentiment of him having to play his way on to the team, but it's curious that a guy with so many talents the team needs (speed, defense, decent hitter in the minors, plays a position they desperately need talent at, etc) would not be at least in the conversation.

I will readily admit I had mixed feelings about bringing Jose back before he signed, though a motivated Bautista could put up amazing numbers in my opinion. Now, based on Duquettes idiotic comments about him over and over this off season add in Chris Davis too, I would love to see him go deep his first at bat. Now that would be a how do you like me now moment, lol.
IIRC, #zeke is 4 for 8 off of Gausman with a HR.
Was he not motivated before this season?
