Wallace in 79 games this season: .221/.284/.431 OPS .716 104 strikeouts in 285 PA! (that's 36.5%) 4th OF at best?? More likely AAAA player? He's still "only" 27 but he feels kind of Snideriffic at this point. Gose can probably get on base better and provide way more value thanks to speed and defense. So glad we made that trade or we'd all be booing Wallace out of town right now.

I trimmed it

Report: Blue Jays continue scouting Samardzija The Chicago Cubs and starting pitcher Jeff Samardzija have agreed to a one-year, $5,345,000 contract, avoiding arbitration. (Jeff Roberson/AP) SPORTSNET STAFF JUNE 24, 2014, 10:14 AM With five weeks remaining before the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline, the Toronto Blue Jays continue scouting the league for potential upgrades to their starting rotation. Pro scouting director Perry Minasian was among those in attendance at Wrigley Field to watch Jeff Samardzija pitch Monday, according to*Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports. Furthermore, Morosi reports that there are strong indications that the Chicago Cubs would trade Samardzija to the Blue Jays if they could obtain right-hander Aaron Sanchez, left-hander Daniel Norris, and centre fielder Dalton Pompey. However, the Blue Jays reportedly maintain that they won’t include all three prospects in the same deal, and are said to prefer David Price of the Tampa Bay Rays or Cole Hamels of the Philadelphia Phillies. Samardzija, 29, has a 2.53 ERA with 97 strikeouts and 31 walks in 103 innings this year. He’s earning $5.35 million and will be arbitration eligible one last time this coming off-season before hitting free agency following the 2015 campaign. Sanchez, who was recently promoted to triple-A, has established himself as Toronto’s top prospect. Though the 21-year-old has struggled with his fastball command this year, he has a 4.08 ERA over the course of 16 starts in the upper minors. Norris, also 21, was enjoying a breakout season at Class A before earning a promotion to double-A. The lefty posted a 1.22 ERA with 76 strikeouts and 18 walks in 13 starts for the Dunedin Blue Jays before advancing to New Hampshire. Pompey has spent the entire season at Class A Dunedin, where he’s batting .312/.392/.460 with 27 stolen bases. The 21-year-old Mississauga, ON native was a 16th round draft pick in 2010.

I agree with you totally Though do keep in mind that we have a chance of extending him or collecting a compensation draft pick.

Wade has to pick between making 20M per season for two years (holy f*** he's not worth that) and losing in the NBA finals every year OR reducing his AAV and having a chance of winning another championship or two.

Trade smaller amounts for a rental pitcher Trade for a long term 2B option

Must be another one of those Dominican messages

I have to admit I've started cheering for Miami after Lebron's first year there. But this will stop if they bring in Carmelo Anthony I assure you.

Jackrabbits!!!

I know If Wade opts out too and redoes.his deal maybe they can afford to bring in another star player. They need to to stand a reasonable chance of beating the powers in the West. I think that's plan A. May or may not work though. Who would they go after? Melo?

Dominican message They arrive on banana boats after 2 months of sailing aimlessly

We could have just signed a FA starter or 2B this off season so that we only needed one of those things instead of 2. Just sayin'...

I'll give up those 3 only if Cubs give up someone who helps our infield situation too Otherwise 2 of those 3 max So... probably won't happen

s***'s starting to.happen in Miami Lebron has opted out of his contract. Wade next??

None of us would trade Stroman for Beede right now would they? You keep the (more) sure thing most of the time

For sure But his point is still valid

Great point Hopefully Bickford and Hoffman is a similar story. (Admittedly less likely)

Reyes (3pts) - Melky (3pts) - o2cui2i, Dylan, vdub Lind (2pts) - Eddy (1pt) - G-Snarls "DFA"Juan (2pts) - Colby "f***IN" Rasmus (2pts) - jays4life19, P2F, GD, Spanky99, Gen.Disarray Navarro (5pts) - Gose (8pts) - Tolleson (7pts) - Kawasaki (8pts) -

You're as streaky as Edwin is. LOL

No. Too busy cooking and going to war against Fangraphs and anti-vaccination groups.

Happ has attitude... Oh wait, I should have read the second part of the sentence.

Good change up tonight too Nice arsenal (yeah I like that term)

Felix is a horse. Could easily pitch every 3rd game.

Trading his 2 best prospects for a busted up Cliff Lee??

Def possible Rangers and Yankees decimated by injuries has really helped them out in that regard But A's are obviously much better, Angels probably better too. Will be hard for them to stay in 2nd place I think. And a I don't see both wild cards coming from the West (though it's possible I suppose)
