Voracious meat eaters unite

     Travis Snider and Eric Thames have lockers on opposite sides of the clubhouse in Dunedin. There's a middle row of lockers dividing the sluggers that might as well represent Blue Jays Nation. There is Camp Snider (209 votes on our poll) and Camp Thames (117 votes). Lunch Box Hero backers are feeling pretty good right now, following another homer today by the voracious meat eater. "I like Eric Thames, I really do, but I hope Travis wins the LF job," tweeted @rallycap_andy. I admire how both outfielders are handling this day-to-day race. Thames on the job hunt: "When it's time to play, it's all business. There are no hard feeling whether he wins or I win. We both know that, hey, it's the business side of what we do," he said.
     When I asked him about his swing and seemingly patient approach right now, he said, "Swing-wise, I feel great. I'm just trying to get my eyes to adjust. There have been pitches I thought were a foot off the plate, but they were right on the black. Right now, I'm just looking to get more at-bats to let my eyes adjust and start picking up spins and getting more comfortable."

Thames also complimented Snider, saying, "He's a great clubhouse guy and a great teammmate."

Great battle no question... however, with Gose and Marisnick close by mid-2013 right now I'd rather see Thames in LF, Rasmus in CF, Snider in RF, Lawrie at 3rd, Escobar SS, Johnson 2nd, Bautista 1st (where he will be anyway once Gose and Marisnick join the fray), Arencibia at C and Lind and Encarnacion platooning at DH. Those two would give us a superior L or R bat off the bench late in games.

The REAL goal however, would be to give Thames and Snider BOTH an extended chance to show what they can do - I think both these guys might just turn into something special - WHY NOT - start finding out NOW!
