kevin pillar
kevin pillar only 26, making peanuts for the next 4 years. 3 weeks ago was hitting like 258. Now hitting 275 12 home runs 56rbis with 25 stolen bases :blessed:

Drafted: 2011: 32nd Rnd, 979th by TOR

He's doing amazing but Pompey has a higher ceiling. Pillar would be amazing trade bait. Same goes with Goins and Travis.

can keep them both, you dont trade young cheap players

pillar can slide to left an dpompey to center

saunders,revere and goins are trade baits

With Anthony Alford coming fast, I think it makes sense to trade pompey for some controllable pitching.

forgot about him

Breh you crazy Revere is 100x better than Pillar. Lead the NL in hits last year. Pompey won't need to make those diving catches because he'll run faster and track them down easy. Don't be fooled Pillar is good but he isn't amazing.

Plus Pompey is a potential 5 tool player. Pillar isnt. One season wonder. Trade him while his value is high.

Breh baseball prospects and drafts are a crap shoot. Many of these could be busts. Jays don't have a great history of developing players either. So don't be surprised if he doesn't come up.

Take away his defense and he's an overall better hitter than Pillar. Come on breh lol.
You getting mesmerized by his TV dives.

He doesn't need to be aa power hitter that's why he's leading off. Not sure why he hasn't stolen a lot of bases. I guess that's just the Jays approach right now because they got big bats

Revere is under control till 2019 has a better resume than Pillar.

Get easily amused a few catches brehs. He won't even win a gold glove. He has a shyt arm too. TV dives all over. Have to admit he's a scrappy hitter but easily can be replaced. If I were the Jays I'd look into acquring Nick Markasis and shift him to left and put Revere into Center. Ease Pomepey.

I don't feel good going into the playoffs with Osuna closing....too many late season hiccups.....he just doesn't locate his pitches well enough simply put...
