    I don't see it happening but you have to bear in mind Tanaka's age. He's only 25 so a 4 or 5 year deal with high AAV would let him re-renter free agency once more at age 29/30 with 4 years experience, still young enough to get another 5 or 6 year deal worth a tonne more as average salaries will go up in the meantime. Risky but not completely out of the question. For the record, I don't think the Jays are in with a chance, I think I'd rather have Jiminez & Santana for 4 years $12.5M each ($100M total) than Tanaka at 6 years $20M ($120M total). You would also "only" lose the 2nd and 3rd round picks this year but pick up a couple of sandwich round picks in 4 years time for signing Jiminez and Santana.

    Enticed in by the sale at mlb.com I was browsing and I found these. http://shop.mlb.com/product/index.jsp?productId=4254545 Quite nice but who uses cuff links in a game?

    Not asking for Halladay, just reliable pitchers like Latos, Hamels and Lee? ERA over the last 3 years (qualified pitchers) they rank 25th, 15th and 5th. You want elite pitchers, no team has that pitching strength except maybe Tigers. Personally I'd be happy with guys like Buehrle - 32 starts per year, 6 innings per start and 4.5 ERA.

    Now Ellis is gone (and AA might have tried to sign him, Ellis could have taken one look at the green concrete and hung up the phone) how about trading for Dustin Ackley? He's now blocked in Seattle, he had a good second half to the season and will at least provide good defense even if his bat never picks up.
