Date	Question	Answer
2012-01-10 13:00:00	Any "sophomores" you like to break out this season (moehk21 from NYC)	I like Ben Revere, Eric Thames, Lucas Duda, Cory Luebke, Danny Duffy, Henderson Alvarez all to various degrees. (Derek Carty)
2011-07-21 16:00:00	Eric Thames or Coco Crisp--who's more productive the rest of the season? I'm especially worried about TOR sitting Thames against LHP. (Rob H from Ontario)	Thames also got hurt today as he rolled his ankle. LHP has been a problem for him but the power is very real and he may have been the most impressive thing I saw in the Grapefruit League this season. Crisp is always an injury risk. (Jason Collette)
2011-06-27 14:00:00	What do you think is Eric Thames' upside as a major leaguer? (Ryan from Winnipeg)	Solid every day corner outfielder. I'm a fan. (Kevin Goldstein)
2011-02-14 13:00:00	Every year as a youngster/teenager, I'd pick a hitter and a pitcher for the Jays on whom the season rested: not the stars (expected) or scrubs (no hope). Who are those guys for this year? I'm thinking Snider and Drabek, but JPA and Frank Frank work, too. (JT from Michigan)	The player I'm most rooting for on the Jays is Eric Thames. Drabek will be solid—I have little doubt. (Tommy Bennett)
