Reyes fills the need for the Jays as being that guy that gets smacked around it doesn't matter because he has 0 potential to turn into anything.
I think for this year it is better to have Reyes get smacked than young like Stewart, Drabek and Cecil because he loses nothing where they risk losing those young guys if they do the same thing.

I totally disagree. None of those guys have gone 28 starts without a win. Litsch has had injury issues, but he is nowhere near as bad as Reyes. Litsch gets movement on his
stuff where Reyes thinks a good pitch is a flat 88 fastball up in the zone.
Jo-Jo has proven time and time again that he is not good enough to pitch in the majors, and it's time to get rid of him. I don't think that Stewart should be brought up or anything, but I don't see why Litsch and Drabek need to be protected. If they get hit, so be it. At least they have a future with the team.
