At least we might have a better chance of seeing buerhle pitch next year, it will be weird seeing him in a jays uni though.

That is not who Rick Hahn is. Hahn builds from within, he is not Kenny, he is going to try and build a sustainable winner. I don't think we are in for a total tear down ala the Cubs, but we will see a more conservative, calculated approach IMHO.

of 21 qualifying 2b in the MLB last year, Beckham was 16th out of 21 in Batting Average...On Base Percentage 20 out of 21.....OPS 17 out of 21...Slugging Percentage 16 out of 21....RBI 13 out of 21...Wins Above Replacement Player 19 out of 21...stolen bases 19 out of 21.... So basically, your homerism is telling you Gordon is one of the better offensive 2b in baseball, except EVERY stat out there says he just is not. Furthermore, he was not a gold glove calibur defender. He is reliable, but his UZR was negative last year, -0.7. His range was not good. He showed less range than Dan Uggla.... Dan freaking Uggla! Gordon turns the DP well, and he is pretty solid with the stuff hit in his vicinity, but basically your average 2b would perform about as well as he did last year defensively. That is just unbias reflection of how his stats measure up vs. everyone else. |

This is just a random thought I had. What would it take to get J.P. Arencibia from the Jays? He's expendable now. They have D'Arnaud who has no business being in the minors anymore and just acquired Buck as their backup. Maybe Beckham + a prospect or two to get him?

Only Rick Hahn knows what kind of GM he's going to be given the resources that ownership gives him. |

I wish he was but so far at least he isn't. I thought Beckham would be much better than he has been so far. He got off to a really good start, but after the first few months it has been a monumental struggle. The more I think about it Robin and Co did a helluva job with what they had. I didn't care for some of the head scratching in game moves, but overall I give the new regime a B/B+ in their first year. Maybe Manto can work some magic with Beckham this spring.

had a high catcher's ERA last year (but most Toronto catchers did). He threw out 29% of potential base stealers, higher than AJ, below league average, similar to guys like Posey, Carlos Santana etc.

Then what are his plans for improving the "Within" because right now it's dreadful.

How do you know he's better than Buck if you don't know his defensive capabilities?
