Campbell shares his excitement about the Blue Jays current run and atmosphere at Rogers Centre
Like the rest of us Campbell is blown away about how the Blue Jays have been playing.
In a recent interview with Randy Palmer of Sask Today, he gave his thoughts on the subject:
«I don't remember this amount of excitement about a baseball team in Torontowell, yes I can, it was 2015 and 2016,» Campbell said. «But back then they destroyed teams. They had (Jose) Bautista, (Edwin) Encarnacion, (Josh) Donaldson, David Price acquired at the trade deadline, Troy Tulowitski. They annihilated teams."
«This team will bunt you to death,» he said with emphasis, drawing laughs from the panel. «Seriously, they're so impressive. They keep winning and I'm sitting back and watching and enjoying it.»
When asked about what he thought about George Springer's resurgence this season at his age Campbell had a very enthusiastic answer.
«George Springer is 35 years old, I thought when you got into your 30s your athleticism declines rapidly,» Campbell joked. «He's had a very significant change in his approach at the plate. The team went to him and said: 'You're not a lead-off hitter anymore, you're going to hit sixth, be comfortable.' And that's what he's done. It's been fun to watch.»
Campbell expanded on his point about moving Springer down the line-up and what has been his biggest keys to success.
«George has power and always has, but as a lead-off hitter your job is to see as many pitches as you can, try and work the pitcher a little bit so your teammates have an idea of what the guy is throwing, see if you can even earn a walk,» he explained. «That's not who he is. So they drop him in the batting order and say: 'If you see a fastball on that first pitch, smoke it.' And that's what he's doing.»
Catch Jamie Campbell tonight on Sportsnet's Blue Jays Central at 6:00 PM ET prior to the game.
