It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

with interestingly, Brad Lincoln getting the start.It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

I read somewhere that the Jays may have promised Izturis the 2B job in order to sign him. Now, promises can obviously be broken, but that probably dents Bonifacio's value a buck or two. He'll still get his 300-400 ABs and 30 steals somewhere but his upside is limited.

Well this is interesting indeed ...
Originally posted by rotoworldBrett Lawrie (rib cage) is starting at second base during his rehab game with High-A Dunedin on Sunday.
Interesting. Lawrie began his professional career as a second baseman but was moved to the hot corner after he couldn't hack it defensively. With Jose Reyes on the shelf, Maicer Izturis is expected to handle the bulk of the starts at shortstop, and the Jays might feel they're better off with Lawrie at second base than Emilio Bonifacio. Jose Bautista started at third base on Saturday. The club should clarify their infield situation before long.It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

I'm guessing that it's just an experiment to see if Lawrie is or isn't a complete disaster out there. If they put Bautista at 3rd, Lawrie at 2nd, and Boni in the OF, I think that it'd significantly weaken the defense. Better, IMO to leave well enough alone and just slide on player into a new position (Itzuris), than make wholesale changes this early in the season."Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."
