All time Jays: LF backup

Who backs up George Bell?

Shannon Stewart.

Tenure means a lot to me, but to also maintain an average well above .300, have plenty of doubles and stolen bases, and play a decent left field defensively should be enough to take this.

I also considered Catalanotto, but his glove was a little lacking. Maldonado only played 2 years here as did Cabrera. Johnson was a serviceable jack-of-all-trades player, but never did anything exceptionally well. Davis was more of a platoon player. Henderson played all of 44 games with the Jays and hit a woeful .215 in that span.

he was only there for a season but Ricky Henderson would make a nice backup

I say no way. See my post above. 44 games and hit .215 in that period. He did steal 22 bases too, but he contributed very little to the Blue Jays in his time.

I will say however, seeing that he stole 130 bases in a single season is beyond crazy.

Have to agree with Cali Flames!

Wasn't making the suggestion based on what he did with the Jays. Just saying, he's the best player by far, and regardless of his stats over 44 games, you would be crazy not to put him in the lineup.
