This is just a rumour, but could you imagine if it was true? Gathright, Gonzalez, McDonald and Batista (if not non-tendered) all potentially in the same lineup. If Wells doesn't improve on 2009 that's 5 lousy hitters, and we don't even know who the everyday catcher will be yet. It would be bunt and steal all the time, because these guys can't do anything else. Gathright and Gonzalez alone at the top of the order makes my head spin.
I don't know what can be expected of Encarnacion, or if he will even be a Jay next season. But if the only 2 hitters who can give an over 800OPS are Hill and Lind next season, the best we can hope for is a lot of "more speed, bunting and stealing" idiots learn their lesson. Speed is all these dolts have. At least the defense should be solid.

Update: bluejays.com now has something up about this, so I guess it must be pretty close to happening. Which I guess means Batista will be non-tendered. But still gaghhhh.
