Loyal Bauxite Lyle McRae (lylemcr) just recently celebrated his first anniversary here on Canada's Place for Baseball Talk. And now, here's a new thread based on his most recent (and just 20th career!) post ...
Look at the Jays' current 40-man roster. Which players who will be on the roster on Opening Day, will no longer he a Blue Jay come Aug. 1?
Could be a trade, a release, a season-ending injury ... you tell us the circumstances, or let them remain a mystery if you prefer. So take a moment, and list your top five candidates on the 40 who will no longer be a Blue Jay by Aug. 1 ... ready? Go! (And thanks, @Lyle!)
My five are ..
... all guys I think other teams might want to deal for, if the price is right, come the mid-season trade deadline.
I think ONE of Dotel, Francisco and Rauch will be kept around to close, but couldn't tell you which one at this point. Rivera could be had for a song in late July. Of those listed, Davis is the least likely to be dealt but might bring the best return.
Over to yyou, -ites of da Baux!
