If we become sellers.. do we sell high on Adam Lind

[Spoonovic]

Yes or no?

 

We all know all about the old Lind and his back injuries. Do we squeeze out a prospect or two for Lind at the deadline?

[JFD]

I would.. this team sucks with or without him

[Dick_Pole]

Yes. Then when the team that trades for him doesn't pick up his options the Jays can always resign him for a cheaper cost, if they so choose.

[G-Snarls]

Yes. Then when the team that trades for him doesn't pick up his options the Jays can always resign him for a cheaper cost, if they so choose.

 

Typical AA: rather than pick up his 7.5M option, he'll buy him out for 2M, then re-sign him for 5.25M.

 

Save a few pennies while 10's of millions are wasted elsewhere

[BlueJayWay]

I would ship Lind out, yes.

[Deadpool]

I'm protesting this poll on the grounds that I think we probably should move him at the deadline, but I really don't wanna!

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.

 

Sell high.

[mtljaysfan]

Oh Yes, Yes and YES!

[DwightDM]

I think "selling high" on Lind is having someone take his contract. Anything but that and we just eat it.

He can probably fetch a top 100-75 prospect at this point considering his contract.

[The Cats Ass]

Top 50 Prospect!

[Dick_Pole]

We'll also have to take into account that whatever team he lands on, he'll get some good coaching for a few months and maybe learn something that forever makes him a better player. Then if he's a FA AA can swoop in and resign him. If not, then message board posters everywhere can forever lament his good play for another team along with Aaron Hill.

[JugglingPitches]

Yes. Package him and JP, let some other team deal with the dumbassery.

Gray and Blair already tested positive for Adderall prior to the draft but it doesn't matter? ADDERALL, a stimulant, is completely banned in all major professional sports. In hockey, there are No exemptions - no medical excuse! The Vancouver Canadians are facing 1st rounder Aaron Blair tonight who TESTED POSITIVE FOR THE STIMULANT ADDERALL and nobody cares? His representatives say it was a one-time thing - just like all of the other athletes say when they get caught! Why are these prospects given the pass?

[Arkadium]

Yes or no?

It's not exactly selling high anymore, Lind has been crud for 2-3 weeks now.

[guylaroche5]

anyone who thinks we'll actually be sellers is out of their damn mind

[IronLadle]

Depends what is offered, I hope we don't just sell to rid the team of salary if the players offered are mediocre and same thing applies to not selling - if the jays are out of it by the deadline, I hope AA doesn't turn down good prospects with hope of going for it next year.
