Blue Jays Projected Lineup
AJ Burnett’s time in Toronto is over, without him Toronto is just that much weaker.
Lineup Projection
C. Rod Barajas - Just holding this spot until Curtis Thigpen is ready for full time duty.
1b. Lyle Overbay
2b. Aaron Hill
3b. Scott Rolen
ss. Marco Scutaro - Manager’s favorite type should get 500 ab’s.
lf. Pat Burrell - Now that Raul Ibanez is in Philadelphia this could be a good pickup as Burrell could also DH and bring run production.
cf. Vernon Wells - Could he become a real superstar or will he continue to be an inconsistent player.
rf. Alex Rios - Progressing well and needs to take the next step to become a superstar.
sp1 - Roy Halladay
sp2 - Dustin McGowan - Will he be healthy? He has great stuff.
sp3 - Jesse Listch - Solid 3.58 era in his first season as a full time starter.
sp4 - David Purcey
sp5 - Matt Clement
closer - BJ Ryan - Star closer needs to stay healthy
DH - Travis Snider
