10 (more) snapshots from Blue Jays photo day - Jays Journal - Jays Journal - A Toronto Blue Jays Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and More

]]> As a follow-up to the response from yesterday’s Blue Jays photo day pictures, here’s another set, with some lesser-known players that haven’t been shown much since joining the team. From top to bottom: Brett Lawrie, Jim Hoey, Rick VandenHurk, Nelson Figueroa, Robert Coello, Ben Francisco, Brian Butterfield, Carlos Perez, Travis d’Arnaud and Jose Bautista.

Reasons this set could be better than yesterday’s:

- Discovery No. 1: Lawrie has the MLB logo and the date he made his debut tattooed on the inside of his right wrist

- Discovery No. 2: Hoey either doesn’t have his own baseball glove or was borrowing one from Matt Macri, a minor leaguer in the Rockies organization, for his shoot

- Based solely off of his photo, Figueroa seems like a pretty nice guy

- Butterfield’s shot is probably the only professional photo where you’ll see him smiling and looking so happy

- Bautista

]]> With Grapefruit League play officially underway, in the spirit of Spring Training, here are 10 nice pictures from the Blue Jays’ picture day on Friday, courtesy of US-Presswire. From top to bottom:

A hiding Kyle Drabek, a view of Yunel Escobar‘s tattoo, Travis Snider with his game face on, Ricky Romero wearing his trademark flat-brimmed cap, Brandon Morrow, Brett Cecil wearing his glasses, Edwin Encarnacion holding what he’ll do some damage with this season, a clean-shaven Dustin McGowan, standout catching prospect and one of my favorites, A.J. Jimenez, and the man with the best outfield arm in the Jays’ minor league system, Moises Sierra.
