I hear you - Patterson and Rivera bring in comp picks if they perform too which is huge at this stage for the jays and they are both hitting lately. For a young rebuilding team the jays sure don't have a lot of youth at the MLB level in the batting order though, other than Cibia they've gotta have the oldest rebuild lineup ever.
Pitching is another story but I would really like to see somebody with more of a future with the club in the LF/DH slots. Snider seems to be getting worse at AAA though and as long as Patterson is hitting you're right, it makes no sense for Thames to ride pine.
Seems like it will be McCoy and Nix who get booted when McDonald and Lawrie join the 25 man and that will be it for roster moves for a while.
Although I can't believe David Cooper is batting .401 through 150 ABs in Vegas, going to be hard to keep him down there if he keeps it up.
