May as well start the thread. Will fill in the blanks when we have the details.

Return is going to be underwhelming, I feel this is rushed.

[z3r0s]

don't be for f***ing pennies, pleeeeease

[Terminator]

Wow!

[King]

Giles+

 

Then flip Giles for more prospects

[Terminator]

Just throwing this out there but it seems like Josh James could be part of the package?

[GeorgiaPeach]

Wow!

 

You didn't see this coming???

[jays4life19]

wowww

[BTS]

Houston has a LOT of assets. Hopefully the return is solid.

[Daniel Labude]

I mean watch it be Giles and some money...a nothing trade probably lol

Yes, and as expected, the #Jays take the #Astros former closer Ken Giles, as @Ken_Rosenthal reported

"Wow!" is a board meme. I am somewhat surprised though. Been following twitter and never heard anything more than general grumblings about Osuna being shopped. Never any individual team.

They could've been talking for 4 months. We don't know what conversations have been taking place.

[Dr. Dinger]

Yordan Alvarez would be my fav realistic target. David Paulino would be an interesting second piece.

[BTS]

Is Giles confirmed in the deal?

 

Edit: I hope he's not the major piece.

[THANOS]

We'll see but I'm worried the DV case could highly depleted the return.

 

Will try and be optimistic.

[GodDonaldson]

Shapiro has no brain

[jays4life19]

Wow!

[WryNGinger]

Now we wait and see if it is one for one

Yes

Josh James and ... Corbin Martin. Pure guess

[Jonn]

Ummm wow holy s***.

Thanks, mate.

[Terminator]

Yep. Rosenthal confirmed that.

[Pendleton]

Giles would likely be flipped to a third team ?

[Terminator]

[jays4life19]

Josh James and ... Corbin Martin. Pure guess

 

There would be a major shortage of lube in Calgary if that were to happen.

[BTS]

Actually Giles' numbers don't look as bad as I thought they did.

[Jonn]

Giles is not any kind of centrepiece. The return has to be really good.

[Brownie19]

Giles is not any kind of centrepiece. The return has to be really good.

 

He's been about as good as Osuna for the past 4 years. How many years of control does he have left? 1 less than Osuna?
