Toronto Blue Jays third basemen are 0 for their last 45, after the 0-for-6 effort yesterday. Edwin Encarnacion has become a peripheral figure who may find playing time on the field hard to come by. Nix has gone through a rough stretch since returning from the DL. Toronto’s .170 average from third basemen ranks last in baseball and they’ve contributed 3 homers and 15 RBI.

I recently received the stats for the Blue Jay players in extended spring training.  These numbers are not published on milb.com because extended spring is unofficial baseball, the games are scheduled by each team, they play locally against other similar extended teams and the results are not reported.  Rehabbing players also play in these games.  In this story I will let you know how some of these players are doing in these invisible games.

The Blue Jays farm system made us proud on Friday night, sweeping every opponent.  From Las Vegas to Lansing (except Dunedin) pitching was great for the good guys.  Batting was run productive for everybody, led by Dunedin, who needed to put 11 on the board to best Bradenton.
