Don’t get me wrong Cameron Rupp does not come without his flaws and he certainly won’t be the final piece of the puzzle that leads the Blue Jays to the promised land but he is an instant offensive upgrade over Luke Maile who virtually provides no production with the stick.
With the Blue Jays starter Russell Martin destined to play in the neighborhood of 110 games this season, a backstop who can hit a dozen or so round trippers could boost the offence enough to steal a couple games throughout the season with some timely hitting.
