Nate McLouth won a GG playing CF, did he not?

Yeah, I think it was for CF, but so did Adam Jones. ;) In all honesty, I'm going more by the defensive metrics and the opinions of other posters on here who's observations I respect a great deal. Consensus seems to be that he is below average in CF. If Dickerson isn't on the squad and Jones gets hurt I'm sure McLouth would fill in but I'm guessing that DD would be looking for another CF with haste. If Dickerson isn't on the squad and McLouth gets hurt we wouldn't have an adequate CF on the roster at all.

All of this is IMHO, of course.

    • That 2016 team wasn't the same for me as 2012 and 2014.  They basically played .500 ball over the second half, and in fact had losing months in July and August. Going 7-2 in the last 9 games gave them a winning September, but that year was kind of similar to this one in that it was a slog for a very long period of time and we never really had the magic of 2012 or 2014. And their offensive approach in the Toronto WC game was so horrible that I think they could have brought in Britton and every great reliever in the league and they still were never scoring again in that game.  After Stroman left, they went 5 innings with no hits, one walk, and six strikeouts.  
    • Fire Hyde.  Put all the guys on steroids.  Tell Holliday he is going to be our center fielder because he sucks so much at second.   Trade Mayo because he can not ever be allowed to field again.  Make Gunnar our firstbase because he cant throw to first to save his life and often makes horrible fielding errors.   Prepare the fans that the Orioles will be the Toronto Blue Jays next year.  A wonderful young team that couldn't do anything and ended up sucking.  
    • 18 straight is crazy and I had no idea Minnesota had that streak going.  Baseball is a silly sport.  And cruel.
    • 1. TOR SP 2. SP depth 3. Add someone with high K% and low HR rate to the BP 4. Righty bat that destroys lefties 5. bring the damn left field wall back in a bit as part of offseason renovations 
    • I think you are confusing 1969 and 1979.
    • Zero chance anything like that has anything to do with the product on the field IMO.  Especially in baseball, which is inherently more a collection of individual performances than a true team sport.  I don’t think clubhouse culture matters at all in baseball except insofar as if gone wrong it might lead to disregard for fundamentals or disruptive off field behavior like excessive drinking or drug use.
    • 2016 Toronto loss for me. I honestly think we had a real shot that year had we advanced. Maybe the Cubs would’ve been too much, but I felt we matched up well with Texas and Cleveland. The Jays were our rival all year. Plus, the feeling that the loss was the beginning of the end for that era.
