<p>Alright! More spring baseball on TV! And this time featuring Marcus Stroman! Aaaaaand a skeleton lineup, which John Gibbons is running out there today to avoid knuckleballer Stephen Wright of the Red Sox.</p>
<p>Or he supposedly was. It doesn&#8217;t look <i>that</i> bad for this part of the spring, though (that is, if you pretend it&#8217;s an away game). Uh&#8230; Russell Martin, at least!</p>

<p>It also gives us a chance to once again test drive our new, better setup for Game Threat comments, powered by <a href="http://solidopinion.com/" target="_blank">Solid Opinion</a>. So go check it out below the lineups!</p>
<h2>Scuttlebutt</h2>
</p>
<p>The Jays have signed some Randy Choate to a minor league to see if he can&#8217;t be a guy who gets lefties out for them while Aaron Loup is on the shelf. Scott MacArthur <a href="https://twitter.com/ScottyMacThinks/status/708344498498224129" target="_blank">tweets</a> that in 71 appearances for the Cardinals last year, Choate pitched just 27.1 innings, so he&#8217;s a true LOOGY this Choate.</p>
<p>Scott also <a href="https://twitter.com/ScottyMacThinks/status/708332890757664768" target="_blank">tweets</a> that Edwin Encarnacion is now looking to get into a game on either Wednesday or Thursday of next week. Take your time, Edwin!</p>
