Escobar the new Blue Jay franchise player hits a grand slam. He reminds me of Roberto Alomar. :rockon:

a little early to call him our franchise player but i really like what ive seen from him in this series against the Orioles.

AA has done a great job on the Trade Market this year :clap:

yes, now AA can look at a 3B and find someone...Wallace can take over @ first and we got a couple of C's too...

Yes, we a 3B, cause I cringe everytime EE is at bat, or fields a grounder.

I wonder what Snider's timeline is, cause i'd like to see Bautista play 3B when he comes back. (Who knows if Bautista will still be a Blue Jay, as I'm sure many teams would like his services)

lol EE bat is more than capable. He's been battin well lately, his defense is the only thing that should make you cringe.

Escobar is amazingly talented baseball player but sometimes his mind is not in the right place or makes bone-headed mistakes you know.

I read, jogging out a fly ball or trying to stretch a 2-out double to a triple , only to be thrown out , when jose bautista is hitting next.

So kinda a guy who plays with his emotions, but need to harnass it better.
