Lugnuts/Blue Jays links for your reading pleasure...

-  The Detroit News declares that Miguel Cabrera passes a big test at third base... involving a former Lugnuts shortstop.  (And, yes, it actually does read "former Lansing Lugnuts shortstop.")

-  How many familiar names can you spot in this
box score?  I'll start you off:  Jake Marisnick, A.J. Jimenez, Michael Crouse, and many more...

-  The Jays split their squad yesterday - the other half
tied the Red Sox, 3-3, with Marcus Knecht singling in his only at-bat.

-  A profile of Noah Syndergaard
from the London Free Press.

-  The Toronto Observer 
continues to get it done with profiles of Blue Jays minor league prospects:  Asher Wojciechowski and Kevin Comer.  We never did see Wojciechowski in Lansing, but we could very well see Comer down the road in 2013 or 2014.

-  The diligent and astute Gerry McDonald over at
Batter's Box draws my attention to his series of 2012 previews, including his expected 2012 rosters/depth chart.  (My thoughts on his Lugnuts predictions:  Interesting to see Luis Hurtado get the starting catching nod; it's a dubious large bench of position players; and Gerry has some inside knowledge that gives him a wise perspective on Anthony DeSclafani.  I'd expect more than a few of the relievers listed for Vancouver to be a part of the Lugnuts' relief corps.)

-  Finally, 1BlueJaysWay collected walk-up songs from assorted folks.  My choices:  Bill Goldberg's WCW theme, for surname reasons; Nelly's Number 1; and Protein's Lemonade.  Banjo solos for everyone!
