  1. Pipe dreams. Cano will get his 8 or 9 year deal from someone, but it won't be the Jays.
  2. It would appear both Rasmussen and Kratz have options, so no danger of losing either of them.
  3. You kidding, they'll probably both be DFA'd tomorrow as AA tries to sneak them through waivers, he does this every year pretty effectively
  4. It's just another way of expressing one thing being like another... For example, if you were comparing one player to another similar player you might say that a guy who strikes out a ton, never walks, is s***** at defense and has a massive inflated ego is Arencibia-esque
  5. Do I foresee a Hurl-esque guarantee here ?
  6. Yankees casting a wide net.
  7. I actually don't think anyone wants that...
  8. Who needs 10 guys? Just give Spanky a hat full of players names and tell him to draw one for every beer consumed
  9. Of course that was slight hyperbole, but AA does get tunnel vision and overpays when trying to acquire guys he covets. The Happ deal and pretty much every trade he's done since then is evidence of that.
  10. Yeah but that could be AA code for signing Cano....
  11. Probably Anderson, who AA will give up Stroman++ for or something ridiculous.
  12. And feel free to merge this with Ang's thread in the prospect subsection that I somehow missed....
  13. http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/2014-top-10-prospects-toronto-blue-jays/ Also, some Steamer projections and Q&A with Andy Burns http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/qa-andy-burns-toronto-blue-jays-infield-prospect/ http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/steamer-projects-toronto-blue-jays-prospects/ Nay at #3 is a bit surprising but nice to see he's getting some props
  14. Well sure, but taking on a 10 million dollar reliever is completely contrary to everything that Beane has ever really done. There's no need to take n that kind of deal of all you want to do is get rid of Weeks
  15. Salary dump for the O's to try and free up space to try and get Cano? I love the offseason...
  16. Looks like a lot of talking heads are loving this deal for the Nats
  17. Should have traded Scherzer. He'd command a much bigger return since. Hardly think 1 more year of control with Fister would offset the difference in the skill level between the two.
  18. I declare this thread to be the winner based on the opening post containing a tweet. And it was first.

    Flames would probably give up Cammalleri for Gardiner. I don't know enough about the leafs to know if he would be a fit, but he's an expiring contract so even if the trade went bad he wouldn't be a cap sinkhole. Flames could really use a d-man right now too with both Wideman and giordano out with injuries I don't know why they want to trade Gardiner though, seems to me he would be a better option than Paul Ranger.
  20. Why today? Did they just now see the news that they won?

    This kid is going to be a beast. Check out the release on this goal from last night http://video.nhl.com/videocenter/console?id=451539
  23. Punting draft picks is for signing elite talent, not average or slightly tiny-bit above average players like Drew.
  24. With the QO driving his price down, monetarily he would probably provide decent value. No way I'd punt a second round pick to get him though.
  25. All do that is true, the problem is the Brier is what, 10 days long? Tournament of hearts another 10....a few shoutouts here and there and you 30 ish days of programming in a 365 day calendar. As good as those small events are, they can't carry a network
