| I am... lol... I like the idea of getting rid of some young underachievers for some proven major league talent...
Two starters with many years of experience... Huge for the Jays, whose pitching fell apart last year after injuries to an already young & inexperienced staff... |

The Marlins sure know how to keep a team. Good luck with Reyes! Sad to see him leave the NL East.
Edit:
Jays get Reyes, Buehrle, Johnson, John Buck and Emilo Bonifacio. What a steal
Marlins gets Yunel Escobar and 3 prospects

Does that mean Ozzie is going to the Jays as well? The only [big league] manager Buehrle has worked for is Ozzie. |

I would love to see Ozzie manage the Jays, he is a no bullshit type guy and that's what we need here...
However only if he could tone down his antics a bit when talking to the media...

Hahaha... Sure his name is Stephen Harper (our prime minister) or as we like to call him George W Junior.  |

Just waiting for the words "official".
It will make a huge difference for this organization.
Will start saving for my playoff tickets..

1. Find the player.
2. Health check.
3. Mail to Bud in Milwaukee.
4. MLB Approval.
5. Contact Toronto and Miami that trade is approved.
I expect today or Friday.

I never understood why the field at the Dome doesnt have the dirt all the way around the bases like some stadiums do... that would fix the turf problem at least for the infielders, at least for the majority of plays. |

Would it? The "dirt" is not dirty, but tiny little rubber pebbles. Ive been on that field and picked up a bunch of the stuff. Totally synthetic.

| The field has rubber in it too.
Anyway, while you people were slacking off talking in-depth about the field at the Rogers Centre, I was hoping someone would want to discuss the 2-year $16 million contract with Melky Cabrara Alex just did.
Rogers gave Alex the Mastercard...obviously.

Phoenix, AZ | Hopefully the GM put a clause in there that would void the contract if he gets busted for PEDs again.
I'm sure there are a few Giant fans who frequented AT&T park who'd be willing to sell their Melk Man costumes. |
