Bonifacio or Hill? 

Post#1 » by oakley34 » Sun Jul 27, 2014 4:38 pm

Prado was rumored to be a Jays target a few weeks ago, but recent reports say the D-Backs are more interested in unloading Aaron Hill.

Emilio Bonifacio came off the DL last week, and the Cubs are likely to move him at the deadline. The guy was a bust for the Jays in his short stint last year, but did a 180 with KC after leaving.

Personally, I'd like them to bring back Bonifacio -- if healthy -- and that's a big "IF," the guy can help manufacture runs for a struggling offense. They'll be without their best hitter for at least 3-4 more weeks, by the looks of it.

What do you peeps think?

I never want to see Bonifacio play 2B ever again for this team.

Keep Bonifacio the hell away from this organization. He's awful.

The problem with HIll is his huge contract that pays him $12M per season in 2015 and 2016. He's an obvious upgrade over any internal option, at least until Lawrie gets back. And if he reverts to his .800 OPS form, he's a huge asset.

“We could have gone forever. (Raptors management) kept knocking on the door and I was like, ‘A couple more minutes.’ Because we were really into it."

I have never seen anyone as bad at bunting as Bonafacio that tried to bunt his way aboard as often he did last season. It was infuriating.

Yes, he was truly the worst in so many ways. It's hard to believe that anybody who watched Bonifacio play with the Jays for any period of time could want him back ever.
