In any case, we must get Reyes back if the Jays lose two Short stops right away. Wow, 10 million per year for Reyes (at 29 yrs old) who is probably the best short stop right now in MLB.
Batting average means nothing and means even less in AAA. Runs scored should not be a stat that people ven look at twice. Right now his highest potential at the plate is that of an average hitter. now I'm not going to sell him down the pond because he was traded because his defense is amazing but his bat is incredibly weak.
