Don't worry about AA, just hope that Beeston doesn't get to make it the decision on who the next gm is.

Jenkins has stupendous movement on his sinker though, drabek no longer does.

Point is, trading Hutch at present value is a really dumb idea unless you're getting a young mlb ready cost controlled player. You won't get that so no point.

Missing the playoffs >>> alienating a fan base of jeter lovers

Wrong again, they could have replaced jeter but replacing a future hall famer isn't something people just do. They're giving him a graceful exit. Its a classy move by the Yankees, something I don't think they would have done 25 years ago

Isn't pitching king right now? So what's more valuable young controllable position players or pitchers?

This kid is gonna get a lot of pussy

I don't think Hal is his father. Cashman is safe. Girardi is safe.

Scouting Report from Norris' 13 strikeout game http://www.minorleagueball.com/2014/8/16/6012843/scouting-daniel-norris-13-strikeout-game

Value is low and pitching isn't as valuable anymore.

Baseball America Hot Sheet 7. Daniel Norris, lhp, Blue Jays Daniel Norris (Photo by Cliff Welch).Team: Triple-A Buffalo (International) Age: 21 Why He’s Here: 1-0, 0.00, 6 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 10 SO The Scoop: After a surprise bump to Triple-A following just eight starts with the Double-A New Hampshire, Norris showed he needed no adjustment to the new level. At Durham, he promptly punched out 10 in six dominant innings, his third time hitting that number this season. Armed with three plus pitches, including a fastball with some of the best late life around, Norris seems poised to be in Toronto as the Blue Jays battle down the stretch for one of the two wild card spots. 13. Franklin Barreto, ss, Blue Jays Franklin Barreto (Photo by Mike Janes). Team: Short-season Vancouver (Northwest) Age: 18 Why He’s Here: .345/.441/.586 (10-for-29), 8 R, 4 2B, 1 HR, 8 RBIs, 3 BB, 8 SO, 4-for-4 SB The Scoop: Barreto has done everything to justify the Jays’ faith in him when they gave him a $1.45 million bonus in 2012 out of Venezuela. He was 10-for-29 this week, but that’s just a microcosm of a great season (.324/.402/.511) in which he’s flashed extra-base power. Barreto’s natural strength leads evaluators to peg him at a double-digit home run producer and his plus speed makes him an efficient stolen base threat. In The Team Photo Jairo Labourt, lhp, Blue Jays. The 20-year-old lefty, signed out of the Dominican for $350,000 in 2011, has regained his footing after a stumble in his first interaction with full-season ball. Since reaching short-season Vancouver, Labourt is 3-3, 2.15, averaging 10.44 SO/9. In the past week, he’s struck out 14 over 10 2/3 innings with just one run allowed. Labourt has a quick arm and sits 90-93 mph with his fastball, touching 95, but needs to polish up his command (5.13 BB/9 at Vancouver). Not So Hot Dawel Lugo, ss, Blue Jays: It’s hard to hold a bad August against a hitter playing in his first full pro season. Lugo, 19, has had a solid season, but he’s running out of gas. He has hit .156/.152/.178 this month at low Class A Lansing of the Midwest League. Lugo’s grounded into as many double plays (three) as he’s scored runs (three) this month.

You're goddamn right, book it

Osuna is a future Ace, book it

Jays are saving them for the big club

72, you got a problem trombone?

Everyday at the local timmies

I'm gonna say it , Cobb is overrated

Exaggeration

we may see both teams score double digits

Chicago and toronto bullpen, this should be a disaster

Melk of fire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Hector Noesi is terrible. If the jays don't trash him, Stroman had no chance anyways

Hopefully Jenkins goes 3 innings or less

How is it they don't skip Stroman a start but will find Hutch a way.
