James McDonald, Pirates Face Off Against Blue Jays

The Pittsburgh Pirates put up a lineup that could look familiar this season.

Starling Marte will leadoff and play left field
Russell Martin will bat second and catch
Gold Glover Andrew McCutchen is in center
Gaby Sanchez who has a smoking hot bat will play first base
Pedro Alvarez who doesn’t have a smoking hot bat will play third base
Travis Snider will be in right field
Clint Barmes will be at shortstop
James McDonald on the mound for the Buccos who are 7-10 this spring.

UPDATE:   I think I missed the second baseman!  Yikes!  Neil Walker is batting sixth.

The Jays bring the following lineup to McKechnie for the 1:05 start.  Along with an ever so sweet hashtag…#LoveThisTeam….awww, so….whatever.

Toronto heads to Bradenton today. Some news from the Blue Jays is they could be considering a move. For 37 years, the Blue Jays have used the Florida Auto Exchange facility in Dunedin Florid as their home during spring training.  The Jays could stay in Florida, but the ballpark is not meeting their needs.

Perhaps just a push for an upgrade?  Some pre-negotiating–negotiating if you will.  The lease on the park the Jays have doesn’t expire until 2017.
