What if you get an elite SP under team control for several years in return?

 

Yes, the jays are loaded with pitchers on the farm, and there is nothing wrong with having more pitching then you need in the future. Pitchers generally have more trade value.

For Donaldson? Not doing it.

 

Bautista can get you a young SP and a solid positional player in return before the ASB this year, easily.

Donalson stays ... untouchable after today if ever there was a doubt!

 

And before Spanky comes to beat me down.... Joey Batz is the logical choice here to be traded first!

 

Say it again... Batz, Cecil, Shanchez and Castro to the Reds!

 

Cueto and Chapman to the Jays !

 

Do it Ninja ... do it now! :)

I wonder when it's better to trade, June or trade deadline? If you're one of the first sellers you might get someone being anxious but if you're at the trade deadline maybe someone gets desperate.

 

More value at the deadline, especially with a top 10 bat.

Bautista is kind of untradeable at the moment because of the shoulder injury. I mean we could trade him but I feel like we wouldn't get a great return right now. I'd wait until the offseason to deal him. We could move Eddy at the all-star break for a pretty good haul though.

 

EE's near 3 years younger though?

Why? Two year deals for both at reasonable prices, get it done

 

Agreed, it's tough to get ballplayers here in the 1st place, well, unless the return is irrefutable.

I move RA to the bullpen.

 

I fire AA, JG and PW.

 

I call up Norris to replace RA.

 

I call up Kawasaki.

 

Your solution to fix the Jays is to bring up Norris and Kawasaki. Plan the parade.

Not sure if this has been said here, but if Dickey HAS to start, have martin as catcher. Why put in a struggling pitcher AND an anemic hitter in the same game?

Thinking that Martin catching Dickey will ruin Martin is just silly.

Jays need to score 7 runs just to have a realistic chance of winning, and with Martin they will get a few more much needed runs. Although this will not

even get the jays close to the playoffs.

Well that would be ideal, and obviously unrealistic. You would move some of our system pitching for it. It depends what the Phillies and Brewers would want, whether you do the deals. Revere is apparently available and I would think Lohse is as well.

Other than Hoffman, Alford and Pentecost (because he's injured). Everyone should possibly be available for the right returns.

Lohse is struggling we already have 5 struggling starters

Yes, and they should keep it that way. Just think we'd have a better chance with Martin. Don't need to be a Sherlock Holmes to come to this conclusion.
