Clement/Barger 3B/OF
Varsho CF
The bottom of the order can hit but won’t scare too many people.

2nd base I can live with being an experiment as most of mlb is in that situation. But 3B/OF with Clement/Barger just kills me. Clement isn’t an experiment anymore, and personally I think everyone looks at Barger as a physical talent more than what he’ll turn out to be. Which is why I think the Jays must look to trade Bo when he turns it around this year. It’s a great year for free agency but realistically we have too many holes, no prospects at the top end, and need to get some of it back. The most ideal scenario is you sign Vlad, and a higher end talent, but trade Bo this season to get more high end capital then start going for it more season after next. Atkins didn’t leave much choice but the above. At least that’s my thought. Bo’s return value is key though.
