2026 Toronto Blue Jays Season Thread

[bluejays]

If Bo wants to play SS I'd be weary, but at 2nd I don't see any problem at all. Generally across the league those who play 2nd play for their defence. Bo doesn't need the crazy range and he provides offence. I think in the past he got injured or was playing through injuries which decreased his production. I don't know if anything he's experienced is chronic, but I do echo there are injury concerns. This year he put on some weight and it didn't seem like muscle. So I am concerned about his longevity. But at 2nd base I think we would have a strategic advantage over many in the league because most just put a defensive specialist there with no expectation of offence. Bo can play average D but be great at bat there.

The main reason they did this is because Berrios can't pitch. He may be a Jay, but he won't be a starter on this team outside of a string of injuries if he's here.





I think that's a fair estimation and where Louis Varland steps in. It won't be Berrios. It can't be Berrios. They won't do that to me.

They can, they will, and they did it before.
