I Don't Want the World; I Just Want Your Half - Game 37, Jays at Cleveland

Toronto Blue Jays at Cleveland Indians, May 9, 2008 7:05 PM EDT





 

Sigh. More They Might Be Giants. Was it asking too much for a better finish to last night than we got? Oh well, Litsch pitched well and Overbay continues to hit the ball well.

The Blue Jays, apparently believing they need more offense, have added a veteran platoon. They traded cash considerations for Doc-femur-shatterer Kevin Mench, the righty half, and signed former Expo standout Brad Wilkerson as the lefty half. Both players are in the starting lineup tonight. Joe Inglett has been sent down to make room. In addition, the Jays have reportedly cut ties with Gustavo Chacin and Sergio Santos .

Mench is a good platoon option against lefties, but doesn't play good defense and doesn't seem to offer more than, say, Reed Johnson, who also has hit lefties well over his career and offers more on defense and on the bases. Wilkerson has really fallen off since his days in Montreal and it looks to me like injuries have really messed up a once-promising career. I've always liked Wilkerson, but it's hard to imagine him hitting better than, say, Adam Lind would over the rest of the season. I will post more tomorrow morning on the two players, since it's almost gametime and I just got in from work.

Doc Halladay pitches today against C.C. Sabathia and let's hope the Jays can score some runs with their new faces.

looks like SB Nation's content carrier

doesn’t have the new jays on their lineup. The lineup is:
Rios, Hill, Rolen, Wells, Mench, Overbay, Barajas, Wilkerson, Scutaro

Low risk high reward

"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"

by Torgen on May 9, 2008 7:11 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

definitely low risk, I agree

I’m not sure the reward is so high though. Lind must be really bummed. Kid gets 19 at-bats, doesn’t do well, and now he could be down in AAA all year.

It was already likely he'd be in AAA all year

It’s certainly consistent with a ‘win now’ mentality.

"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"

And considering our righty-heavy lineup has sucked against lefties

and we’re about to face three, anything to increase our hitting against lefties has the potential to be high reward.

I agree with that

do you think Stewart will be cut soon?

he seems a bit superfluous now

If we need the roster spot

I’d give Wilkerson a chance to prove himself before dropping Stew. Of course we could always go back to Lind if we drop Stew and then Wilk doesn’t pan out.

"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"

by Torgen on May 9, 2008 7:24 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

true, there's no rush or anything

It just seems to me that Stew’s days might be numbered. Even if Wilkerson doesn’t pan out, I’d want to give Lind another shot.

Lind going back to AAA might not just be because he sucked. It may also be to help him with his confidence.

bringing his K game this season. I wonder if it’s conscious on his part after so few K’s last season, or if he just has a great feel for the curve early this year?

Also relevant

Last year he was caught a bunch by Philips, Fasano, and Thigpen. Might that have depressed his K numbers?

"He almost has to start. Do you believe in miracles?"

by Torgen on May 9, 2008 7:56 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

True

I’m sure it didn’t help. But Doc also said last season he was consciously trying to pitch to contact more. Probably part of that was the faith he had in his defense.
