I like Toronto's young pitching and they have one of the game's best managers. Jim Fregosi is worth an extra 10 wins a year. Centerfield is a toss-up between Jose Cruz and Vernon Wells. I'm not sold on Homer Bush at second base. I like Chris Carpenter and Roy Halladay behind David Wells.
Carpenter has good velocity and one of the best curveballs in the league.
I don't think anyone's got better stuff than the closer, Billy Koch. It's not easy being Gord Ash. The Blue Jays' general manager is a hefty man with a bald pate. Furthermore, Ash is something of an outsider in the cliquish G.M. game. He is a businessman, not a former ballplayer.
