Blue Jays Discussion: The Countdown is on: 3 days till Jays Home Opener!

I don't know how I would respond to Montreal getting a team back. I was always an Expos fan and only switched to the Jays when they left Montreal.

Not sure if I would switch back or remain a Jays fan if Montreal got the Expos back.

Bruce

Jay
Beltran
Holliday
Craig
Molina

Crawford
Hanley
Kemp
Adrian
Ethier

Those are some teams I thought had good top 5 hitters.

I think we are top 3 for sure, I think us, Detroit, and LAA could all be #1.

Really like ATL and LAD's top 5.

LAA is dirty, but I think Trumbo would drag them down a bit.

The issue with Toronto's top 5 is that, we don't even know if Lawrie is going to be hitting in the 5 hole. I thought it was Lind. And if it is Lind...he'd have to have a significant bounceback season for the Jays to be even close to those other teams.

In the Reds's case, 3-4-5 looks wicked, but not sure if Choo is a real leadoff batter, and Phillips is kinda meh.
