Blue Jays Acquiring J.Reyes, J.Johnson and M.Buerhle
Escobar, Hechevarria, and possibly even Jose Reyes (although doubtful) in the deal. More to come...

Johnson, Buehrle, Reyes, and John Buck and Bonaficio
Are they really dumping Reyes this soon? What a joke of a franchise. Contract them. |

Re: Blue Jays Acquiring J.Johnson and M.Buerhle
Okay, that's got to be a mistake. I'm not buying that. Even the Marlins aren't THAT stupid. I like Escobar...but he's not that good. Not even close! I have no clue who that Hachevarria is though. That's just insane. No chance it's real.......right?

The Reds could learn a lot from the fish

Re: Blue Jays Acquiring J.Johnson and M.Buerhle
It's just like 1997, without the World Series (or playoffs... or winning record). I'm guessing the Blue Jays are taking on a lot of salary...

I really think Selig needs to step in and kill this one.
Or tell Loria he has to go. |

On that note, time to pick Stanton off of them for Chris Heisey or something equally ridiculous.

I'd think it would have to be something like Hamilton, Cingrani, and Stephenson though. Who would be willing to do that?

Reyes may be included, but that hasn't been confirmed as of yet. |

Not me. I would do Corcino and Cingrani both though. No Hamilton, no Stephenson.
