The JJ Ruiz Mystery

I think I'm going to just rack this JJ Ruiz stuff up to more ado about nothing. A team that needs talent as much as the Jays of course should look for as much of it as possible, but how many LH 1b/dh/lf do you need? (Lind, Snider, Overbay and Wallace) Especially when, you also have 2 RH ones (another Ruiz and Dopirak) as well. I think in the back of my head I am starting to believe that either Wallace or Lind is actually being looked at as some kind of future trade bait, in addition to Overbay obviously leaving.

Adeiny Hechevarria however is a different story. The Jays need to get as many SS prospects as possible, and hope one of them turns into something in the next couple of seasons, hopefully a capable lead off hitter as well. If atos wants to stock up on something, that would be the thing to me. Maybe he can turn Overbay and some of the excess bullpen pieces into a prospect ss at the end of spring training.
