Hypothetical Challenge Trade – Travis Snider for Domonic Brown
**Note** This trade has not occurred, nor has it been rumoured to happen. It is simply a hypothetical trade to create discussion on the value of Travis Snider and Domonic Brown.
The challenge trade is one of the most exciting swaps in all of baseball. Two players, each with their own strengths and flaws, are traded because the other team thinks it can maximize their potential. In...

Travis Snider Breaks Out At The Plate, Leads Blue Jays To Rout Over Mariners
The resurgence of Travis Snider continued tonight, as the Blue Jays outfielder-of-the-future showed the type of impact bat that he possesses, jump-starting the bluebirds offense with a bang early against the Mariners en route to a 11-6 rout.
Whether you’re on the side that agreed with demotion to AAA earlier in the season, or think that the 23-year old would have worked out...

Blue Jays Minor League Watch: Travis Snider Hit On Helmet In AAA Game
If you were wondering when we would finally be relieved from the Corey Patterson show and see Travis Snider back with the Toronto Blue Jays, I’m afraid there are some bad news. Sportsnet’s Shi Davidi reported earlier today that the Blue Jays outfield prospect was hit on the bill of his helmet in an at-bat during last night’s game between the Las Vegas 51s and the...

Snider Snider, Burning Bright
Travis Snider's hot streak continues. Is he ready to be called back up? All this, and more, in today's Minor League Update
Colorado Springs 6 at Las Vegas 12It was 9-3 Las Vegas by the end of the 4th, and the 51s lead was never in Jeopardy! after that. Brad Mills was simply okay, which for the PCL is pretty good. He went seven, and allowed 4 of the 6 Colorado Springs runs...

Blue Jays Minor League Watch: Where’s Travis Snider At?
When the 2011 season first started, Travis Snider was supposed to be a staple of the franchise. Snider was to be given everyday duties in earnest for the first time in his young career – but after struggling in April, he was demoted in a midst of a 5-game hitting streak. We’re just over 2 months into the season now, and it doesn’t seem as though he on the verge...

Wait, what? Blue Jays Option Travis Snider to AAA, Outright Woodward
Now for the real story of the day: shortly after the feel-good train got rolling with the Jays taking the series against the Rangers, the team made a several moves, outrighting veteran Chris Woodward (who was recalled to provide infield depth) and…optioning left fielder Travis Snider to AAA Las Vegas.
Even after this move has sunk in over the last few hours, I’m still...

Travis Snider: Not how to grow a mustache
Travis Snider of the Toronto Blue Jays went to Spring Training ready to grow some facial hair. When Jay’s picture day came around, he had something:
Even amid a band of mustache appreciators here at 7IS, I have to say that that ‘stache is creepy. It’s just kind of a brown smudge, more than full fledged fur. Some of us weren’t cut out for mustache usage...

Will T. Snider Have People Banging Their Heads In 2011?
Travis Snider hit .155 in April and nearly lost his starting job. Where the OBP was solid in the minors, it abandoned him. Nothing was working. Then in May, he turned things around hitting .378. Gaston giveth time, Snider giveth power and OBP until he hurt his wrist and went to the 15-day DL for 62 days. Wrist injuries can be tricky things. Maybe when he returned in August...

Expectations for Travis Snider in 2011
It seems that everyone is currently focused on the new Manager, Manny’s interest in the Jays, and Jose Bautista’s issues (which I will cover in an upcoming post). However, the most interesting aspect of 2011 and the potential for the Jays to make a move lies more in the bat of Travis Snider than any other hitter.
You may wonder why I point him out of the crowd. Well, hereâ...
