The Cubs would've been the nicest fit (they have pitching and need offense) but they have no room for Edwin.

 

Maybe we can have a threesome?

 

They have Rizzo.... Not a fit at all.

Yes I think so. Orioles might be a good candidate as well as the Mariners Royals among others

 

Mariners are definitely a fit. Orioles aren't going to trade high end players in division.

I think Bautista is the premier player here. Definitely a few contenders might be willing to pay his price

 

In the off-season maybe, no way they can move Jose this season.

It would be hilarious if the Jays went for Shields in the same way it was hilarious we went for Reyes.

 

We didn't sign Reyes when he was a FA because we didn't want to give that many years/$$$. The Marlins give him a back loaded contract and we pick him up a year later after the Marlins got him for the first cheap year. WTF? We could have had him for an extra year on the cheap and given up nothing if we just signed him?

 

Same thing would be with Shields. Not willing to give him the years/$$$ he wanted but we're now interested a year later when it will cost us prospects? Shields is $10 million this year, then he jumps to $21 million a year for next 3 years. Why didn't we just sign him???? Again, we could have at least had him for the cheap year! Even if it cost us a few more million to get him to come here over San Diego, those million are probably worth us saving the prospects it would cost.

 

If this is the case and we are actually inquiring about Shields, just f*** off AA.

signing free agents isn't grocery shopping.

 

Reyes wasn't choosing Toronto over Miami. And Shields wasn't choosing Toronto over San Diego.

Uh, nope. I think we're overestimating how good our offense is.

 

Look at Valencia/Colabello/Smoak. They are NOT as good as they were in the first half. Not to mention Pillar and his +.400 BABIP in June.

 

Even Donaldson has massively cooled off in June, as did Martin. Bautista is slumping. Reyes has been s*** for awhile.

 

The offense will not be as good in the 2nd half as it was in the 1st half. The only guy I expect any consistency from is Travis.

 

Not as good as they where in the first half, wtf! We are just barely into the second half really really early to make that call !

This team would be in shambles worse than Port-au-Prince after the 2010 earthquake if some of you were the GM.

WTF would you do that? because you're a tard?

 

No, it's because I have recognized that Sanchez is a better asset and gives this team a better chance to win. Hutch in my opinion will not get much better than we see now. He relies too much on an inconsistent fastball with inconsistent command and through the 3 ish years he has been in the majors has not made any progress in developing a 3rd pitch. Between the two Sanchez has more upside now and in the future in my opionion, so I would trade Hutch for Shark

You realise Shark is a rental right?

Don't know what this is, but that would have AA fired tonight

 

Are you serious? That trade would be a steal for the Jays, obviously it's not true.

Not really. Shark is a rental and Alford is a serious wildcard.

Why trade for 2 months of any pitcher when the Jays have as many losses as a bad WS team?

 

 

Makes sense.

Okay maybe not a steal but it's a pretty good deal for a win-now team.

It might be a franchise crippling deal lol

 

If Shark is like a 2 win upgrade RoS and Robertson is negative surplus value you're dealing a s*** ton for not so much

 

Just call up Norris if that's the price
