And Corey Patterson and Taijuan Walker
Randal Grichuk turns 33 today. Randal played five seasons with the Blue Jays. In his 479 games, he hit .243/.289/.461 with 90 home runs, putting him 25th on our all-time list in home runs. He had a 4.2 bWAR in the four seasons. You will likely remember that we picked him up from the Cardinals in May 2019, sending Conner Greene and Dominic Leone to St. Louis. Neither did much for the Cards: Greene pitched in 24 games in the majors and is now pitching in the minors for the Astros.
Corey was a Blue Jay for 89 games in 2011. He hit .252/.287/.379 with 6 home runs and 13 steals . He played outfield in a rather Gurrielish manner . At the plate, he had a habit of swinging at head-high pitches, and occasionally, he’d hit one . But when he did hit one, it was fun to watch. He had an unfortunate tendency to steal third base. He was 0 for 3 in attempts to steal third base while having a good success rate stealing second.
