Consolidated trade deadline thread

[Terminator]

I'd move Sanchez for Lester. 4 innings ago people had much different feelings about Sanchez.

[GD]

I would move Sanchez for Lester too.

If the Sox weren't an AL East rival I could get on board with this. Maybe AA can find a 3rd team to get involved so the Jays don't have to face Sanchez or Norris multiple times a season for the next 6 years.

I would move Sanchez for Lester + a B prospect... Not straight up for 2 months of him.

Does it really make a difference of its Sanchez or "x" prospect? If the prospect is better than Sanchez or Norris than that trade would be worse for the Blue Jays. Its not like Sanchez is a known thing either, he could very easily bust. Pitcher that throw that hard usually will face an arm injury down the road.

[Deadpool]

And if I'm Cherington, I ask you to send that over as a formal offer, put the print out on the floor, and take a selfie of me urinating on it, and post it to GTFOOH dot com.

 

Then Cherington can f*** himself gently in his ass... 2 Months of a starting pitcher is not worth much to me...

 

Edit: Kershaw? Maybe... Lester isn't Kershaw...

And next year when we get shut down by Lester and Sanchez you will be crying yourself to sleep

[dineke]

Man I might have to buy a molester jersey if this happened.

[closetjaysfan]

You're aware that this is irrational though, right? The Red Sox are going to get a top prospect from some team for Lester and that prospect could f*** the Jays for years to come. It doesn't matter what team drafted and developed the prospect.

 

Exactly this. If the sox are confident that Lester wont sign it is beneficial for them to trade within the division... would have to be really pricey for the yanks though.

[Spoonovic]

Giving up our best prospects to a division rival for only two months of Lester?

 

No thanks.

[G-Snarls]

[G-Snarls]

I can actually see AA having 9 "almost" deals done at this point

[GD]

If the rumours are correct, Price is as good as gone...

 

To St. Louis- Price

 

To Tampa- Miller+ OT+ 15' 1st rd Comp pick.

 

They'd be nuts, not to take that???

 

Good god. Please, no.

If that happens I may have to join the hive

[GD]

I'm not seeing that anywhere.

[jays76]

Who knows if the Blue Jays will even be good next year though. They need to make the playoffs this year.

 

This^^

[Gorlak]

I really hope AA doesn't get any of the aces available, Too much of a sellers market.

[Frenchsoup]

If I am Tampa I do this. If I am St.Louis I do this.

Bold predictions as Trade Deadline nears

Phil Rogers: Lester, Miller to Jays

Jon Lester and Andrew Miller from the Red Sox to the Blue Jays for Drew Hutchison or Aaron Sanchez and a package of prospects. It used to be considered bad business to trade within your division but those days are going away. The thought now is to get the best deal, period. This trade gives the Blue Jays a better chance to advance to the postseason and the No. 1 starter to help them win a Wild Card Game, if they have to play one. It could be a real coup for the Red Sox if they double-back in December to re-sign Lester.

Farrell says in light of everything going on with Lester, it makes the most sense for Workman to start tomorrow.

 

 

Pirates or Cards

[Atothe]

To Tampa- Miller+ OT+ 15' 1st rd Comp pick.

Clearly they want Oscar Taveras because Miller isn't good enough, I would want Gonzales or Martinez

great news for the jays....I like our chances with buehrle against workman vs buehrle against lester!

[Jimcanuck]

Trade talk has me worried Jays brought up Sanchez to showcase

 

Will hate losing ace potential with years of control for a rental

[o2cui2i]

I dont want the Jays to give up too much for a rental.

[prayforthejays]

100% lester doesn't go to Jays. Apparently Jays are not one of the teams in the running....

[Nails]

It will be the Pirates anyway

[Angrioter]

ChrisCotillo

Jose Tabata pulled from lineup before game at AAA Indianapolis tonight.

 

 

 

Lester to the Pirates in 3....2.....1

[jaysblue]

Clearly they want Oscar Taveras because Miller isn't good enough, I would want Gonzales or Martinez

 

Don't look into his 2014 stats. He's been pretty bad, though he's still just 24 and has a fantastic arm. I'd prefer Miller over those two still any day.

[Angrioter]

lol........Ang, you entertain me bro!!

 

Tabata > Josh Bell

 

Tabata is ready to the bigs
