Big Price for Jays...Norris, Labourt and Boyd

[TheHurl]

if someone like estrada goes down...do we have any SP depth??

 

if anyone gets hurt...anywhere do they have any depth?

[jayswin11]

Question is are we done now? I think since we've come this far another SP or an OF might be on the way.

IF...

[HERPDERP]

Someone make a poll!

[JaysFan4Ever]

He's going to get $200+M. Mega contracts for 30+ year old pitchers are about the single most reckless and stupid thing a team can do.

 

That's the scary thing. He'll command a fair chunk of change and the Jays give up players who might not be elite of the elite but only get a rental unless maybe they convince him to take a short term deal with a larger AAV to stick around for 2-3 years but unlikely.

Alford for Chapman?

And we give up what?

[glory]

We kept Alford. Yes!

[John_Havok]

So no closer AA???

 

Fired!

 

Kidding aside, landing Tulo and Price while giving up just Hoffman and Norris as top tier prospects is pretty ninja....

 

With an extension to Price, Jedi level mastery.

[candymartinez]

So it's just Norris?

 

Don't like rentals as much as the next guy, but Norris isn't exactly a A+ prospect. I'll give him up for a very solid shot at the playoffs.

[FrozenRopes]

Payroll doesn't matter but s***** pitching at 34 while paying him 30+ million is ludicrous. These guys don't get it

Why couldn't it be that bum Sanchez instead of Norris?

Norris Boyd Labourt

[Ziggyy108]

Norris + Boyd + Labourt for Price

 

Not bad at all.

[S33n]

To get blown out by the Astros on a hot Texas afternoon in early October.

 

Why would we automatically get blown out? Right now our team is better than theirs.

[Angrioter]

Labourt: -Nothing

Boud: Nothing

Norris: Great asset

[jayswin11]

And we give up what?

 

Don't know, just a question. But there is still talent in the minors

Buerhle says hi...

 

Wtf are you talking about. Please tell me?

[baloojayz]

Why couldn't it be that bum Sanchez instead of Norris?

 

Because he's a bum

[Atothe]

If only but DD knows better

[G-Snarls]

FULL DEAL: @bluejays acquire LHP David Price from @tigers for LHP Daniel Norris, LHP Jairo Labourt & LHP Matt Boyd. http://t.co/sEi3tbwQBH

Most people don't seem to think so, the problem is, the fat greek thinks he's a really good pitcher.

[fireballW]

My God it would have been sweet to have him be a guy used to get a good player. Sadly baseball organization's are getting too smart.

[Captain Adama]

People are underestimating the role that Boyd has, he's valuable pitching depth that I would rather throw out than someone like Doubront. Lack of depth has been a problem that anthopoulos has kept pushing on himself.

 

If someone goes down there's a problem.

[JaysFan4Ever]

I hope AA can pull a rabbit out of his hat in the offseason and sign a starter or two maybe trade a bat for some prospects or guys with some control. Our SP depth is virtually nonexistent now and with MB, Price FAs and RAD option year without a guarantee he's brought back (though with our rotation issues he probably will be), they'll need something to help out in the event someone goes down again or isn't ready eg if Sanchez is in the rotation.

 

I guess AA thinks there's a chance to make the PS and wants to give it a shot and/or has a plan for the offseason. I'm still in shock they pulled this off.

[Angrioter]

Who changed my title?

 

f*** you Saldy Anderson

[dineke]

All this for the chance to play one game... eh
