Jays looking for Archer like return for Stro?

 

This isn't new, correct?

 

Not sure why I just recieved an alert from The Score about it.

 

I think Twins are the team to provide this for us.

Ewwwwww... why would the Jays do that? Extend Stroman then... lol.

 

I'm firmly in the extend camp (unless someone blows us away). That, of course, is contingent on him not asking for 20-25M a year or something though.

 

I feel like that's the kind of return we're going to see for Stroman, not the kind that I obviously hope for. I don't think we're going to see a top blue chip prospect for him. For Giles, quite likely. For both as a package, definitely.

That's where I've thought Stro & Giles will go for a while now.

 

Stroman + Giles for Kiriloff + Graterol + Alcala.

A deal without Duran is a loss IMO

 

Kiriloff + Balazovic + Duran + Rooker please and thank you.

Well, that's what Brandon J. Sommermann thinks, lol. Who is this guy some Flyer blogger, definitely nothing to see here.

 

This ^

 

If you are going to listen to these guessers you will go crazy. Philly has much better options than McGarry for Stroman.

Guess I didn't realize your only allowed to scout players that very specific people expect/hope to return.

 

Shad up, this isn't even good.

no slice of cheese cake to go along with that? When a fellow GM blocks your number, you know you've probably asked for too much.

Not taking Graterol should buy you something. In this case Rooker. Unless internally they now rank Balazovic higher, which is possible. Frankly I'd be happy with Balazovic +Duran for Stro.. Giles should buy something but anything more then a fringe top 100 guy is likely wishful thinking. Duran is dealing this year, much like Muller on Atlanta.. Get them now as they will be top 100 guys next year.

Shapiro is not involved with the day to day operations of the team

 

I don't think I'd categorize trading valuable assets like Stroman and Giles for the betterment of the rebuild as a day to day task.

Have you seen Moneyball? Nothing I have seen says Shapiro is a great negotiator or wheeler dealer.

 

I'd rather put my money on Shapiro than Ross Atkins in any capacity.

Some sweet Shapiro and AA Gossip:

Sounds like ******** speculation. Any front office that would be so petty and unprofessional shouldn’t be running a team and would likely have a terrible reputation around the league (something Shatkins don’t have, despite the moaning about them).

Giles was never one of AA's former Jays... C'mon Kenny Ken Ken.

I don't think he's saying that Giles was one of AA's necessarily. Just mentioning it in passing with respect to Stroman. At least that's how I took it.

"Anthopoulos acquired two of his other former Jays"

 

*shrug* no big deal, but if he didn't mean that, he phrased it very poorly

Daniel Hudson has been a solid pickup for the Jays. He's done a great job out of the bullpen, which has turned him into a trade chip this July.

 

Sogard is having an unbelievable season. The Jays could actually turn him into a young asset.

What would we have to give up to get Spencer Howard, Haseley + Moniak?

 

I would imagine it'd be Stroman plus a smaller piece.

No one is going to give us anything for Sogard. At best you'll get a 24 year old AAA suspect. I wouldn't call that an asset. I hope to be proven wrong though.

Not sure I would love that package for Stroman straight up. Is Haseley that interesting? I like Howard but it’s an arm in A ball

I agree it's not the sexiest package but with the Phils not being that deep I would imagine it would take Stroman to pry what's probably 3 of their top 7-8 prospects.

I do like Hasely quite a bit. I think he’ll hit for sure, but not entirely sure about his defense. Fangraphs likes him enough to think he can be a perennial 3 WAR guy. If that’s his floor, I wouldn’t mind him as a secondary piece.
