 Marco Scutaro-SS- Blue JaysNov. 3 - 10:16 am et
General manager Alex Anthopoulos said that while he is open to bringing back Marco Scutaro, Rod Barajas and John McDonald, that doesn't mean it will happen.
"As much as I like John McDonald, Rod Barajas and Marco Scutaro, there might be alternatives that make this organization better and are the right alternatives for this team," said Anthopoulos. "We'd like to bring them back, (but) everything has to fit with respect to what the alternatives are and with respect to what their financial requirements are. I'm starting to get a pretty good handle on where their expectations are with respect to the market and what they feel their value might be." Among the impending free agents, Scutaro, 34, figures to drum up the most interest on the open market. As a Type A free agent, he could net the Blue Jays two first round draft picks if he turns down arbitration in order to sign with another team.

 Marco Scutaro-SS - Blue Jays Oct. 19 - 9:18 am et  

General manager Alex Anthopoulos says the Blue Jays would like to bring back Marco Scutaro and Rod Barajas.
"We like both players," said Anthopoulos. "We'd like to bring them both back." Whether they can afford to keep them is another thing. Antopoulous won't know his team budget until later this month. Scutaro, 33, batted .282/.379/.409 with 12 homers, 60 RBI and 100 runs scored this season. He was seventh in the league with 90 walks. Barajas, 34, batted just .226/.258/.403, but had 19 homers and 71 RBI.

 Rod Barajas-C - Blue Jays Sep. 11 - 9:50 am et

Blue Jays manager Cito Gaston suggested Thursday that catcher Rod Barajas, an impending free agent, won't be back for 2010.
The news caught Barajas off guard. "I don't know why someone would assume that," he said. "I don't think I've had any issues in the clubhouse, I've never said anything negative to pretty much anybody. I enjoy it here, I have fun here." It would make sense to let Barajas walk this winter, despite his pleading. Young backstop Kyle Phillips, 25, had a nice season at Triple-A, and prospect J.P. Arencibia isn't far off.

 Rod Barajas-C - Blue Jays Sep. 1 - 12:11 am et

Rod Barajas went deep twice and plated five runs in Monday night's win over the Rangers.
He and Adam Lind both homered twice and combined to drive in 13 of Toronto's 18 runs in the victory. Barajas is hitting just .254 with a paltry .275 on-base percentage, but his totals of 16 home runs and 60 RBI are both plenty respectable.
 Rod Barajas-C - Blue Jays Jul. 28 - 1:57 am et

Rod Barajas went 3-for-5 with a homer and two RBI as the Jays pummeled the Mariners 11-4 on Monday.
Barajas and Lyle Overbay both took Felix Hernandez deep to help make a winner of Ricky Romero in a mediocre outing for the left-hander. Barajas, who hadn't scored a run since July 1, actually crossed home plate three times in this one. Those were just the second and third times since June 2 that he was driven in by someone other than himself.
 Rod Barajas-C - Blue Jays Jun. 30 - 9:15 am et

Rod Barajas (ankle) finished 1-for-3 with an RBI Monday in his return to the Blue Jays' starting lineup.
Barajas was nearly placed on the disabled list over the weekend, but promised the Blue Jays medical staff he could play through the pain. After running the bases without pain or discomfort Monday, he was added to the starting lineup. Look for Barajas and Raul Chavez to rotate time behind the plate until the All-Star break.
