That line up is a thing of beauty!


I'm disappointed Stro is not in the 4 hole personally


I really wish teams would just play pitchers in positions that used to play in HS and college.

I think teams tend to get a little overly caution about injuries when it comes to pitchers.

Looking at yesterday and today's lineups compared to 2 seasons ago it's like, yuck, what the hell happened?

I thought exactly the same thing when I looked at it. Injuries to two of your better hitters at actual defensive positions will change things in a hurry.
Raptors Season Ticketholder since the 2000 playoffs, through all the lows... build to the championship high... to Tampa and back again.

Meh, I mean there aren't too many teams that are going to have a great looking lineup when you lose two players like Donaldson and Tulo, and are playing without a DH.

Take JD, Tulo, and EE out of the lineup in 2015 and it doesn't look much better.

Pearce is slumping so badly even his great swings are outs....

Osuna is yet another headache for a team that could use a little pain relief.

Maybe they need to shut Osuna down. The lowered velocity plus the way he is getting hit around right now isn't a good combination.

Return to Toronto Blue Jays
