Jeff Blair is reading our minds...

...and we're a little freaked out about it.

Our favorite Jays beat writer reached all the way from Philly into the part of our brain where we keep our incomplete thoughts, and stole this little nugget, which was to be our next post:

Is it just me or would Eric Hinske look pretty good on the Blue Jays' bench right about now? Here's the video of Hinske's one-man show Thursday night.

An athletic left-handed hitter who can play the corner outfield and infield positions? Hmmm, yeah I might find a spot for him on my bench ...

Damn you Blair! Get out of our heads! You magnificent sardonic bastard!

It would be nice to think that, but only the Evil Empires can pay $5M for a backup corner player who can fill in when J.D. Drew is hurt and Manny Ramírez forgets to show up for games... but did the Jays pick up a portion of Hinske's paycheque?

Point taken...but I'm pretty sure that the Jays are picking up half of Hinske's salary this year.
