A lot of the guys I thought were 22 seem to be 23, must have had a birthday since the offseason when they were talked about.

So more like 10 guys that are 22. 23 certainly seems to be the age that guys make the jump as there are a ton of them in the league.

Under 22: Jenrry Mejia, Elvis Andrus, Jason Heyward, Neftali Feliz, Ricky Porcello,

As for Snider take a few minutes and look up his minor league stats its obvious what he has done in AAA or AA or high Single A ball.
He has done well but not destroyed them.

Sure he has struggled this year, however why not keep him on the team and work with him.

The Jays are not going to contend this year anyhow, its a perfect year to see how the kid will play 2 or 3 or 4 months into the season.
No reason not to keep him if you think that is the best place for him but that doesn't mean that he has shown that he deserves to be in the MLB so far.
