The Toronto Blue Jays

Jose Reyes

The Blue Jays did not add much to their this off season but they still have some very good parts to their team. They have an excellent combination of speed power combination with excellent defense. The Blue Jays will have to compete with the stacked AL East.

Jose Reyes is the spark at the top of the lineup that scores all the runs. The Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion can hit up to 80 home runs combined and score much needed runs. Here is how the lineup in 2014 may look
.

1. S. Jose Reyes      SS 113 OPS+
2. S. Melky Cabrera LF 88 OPS+
3. R. Jose Bautista RF 132 OPS+
4. R. Edwin Encarnacion DH 145 OPS+
5. L. Adam Lind 1B 132 OPS+
6. R. Brett Lawrie 3B 94 OPS+
7. L. Colby Rasmus CF 127 OPS+
8. S. Maicer Iztirus 2B 65 OPS+
9. L. Josh Thole C 38 OPS+

Sike that's the wrong blue jay. 

The Blue Jays made an attempt to upgrade their rotation with the Marlins by acquiring Josh Johnson and Mark Buehrle, but Josh Johnson is now with the Padres and Buehrle did not come through well last season. They do have RA Dickey and Brandon Morrow at the top of their rotation, but the rest of the rotation may be up in the air. Here is how I would set up the rotation in 2014.

1. R. Brandon Morrow 73 ERA+
2. R. RA Dickey  97 ERA+
3. L. Mark Buehrle  98 ERA+
4. L. JA Happ  90 ERA+
5. R. Kyle Drabek not enough data

Casey Jannsen is the closer for the Blue Jays, definitely not the best in the league, but he gets the job done. Hard throwers Sergio Santos and Steve Delabar also make their homes in the Blue Jay bullpen. Lefties Brett Cecil and Aaron Loup also get integrated into late innings to make interesting
match ups.
