Rumor has it that the Jays have officially adopted the Marlins logo as well.
I'm still in shock that the deal went through...so much so that I decided to experiment for the first time with Microsoft Paint....
Needs work, yea I know.
But hey, I don't care. The Jays now have maybe the best leadoff hitter in MLB right now, and I have a feeling that GM Alex Anthopoulos has something else up his sleeve.
OK...I guess this really could be defined as a blockbuster.
Welcome to Toronto, Jose!
Thanks for reading, Robert
Yes and YES. Much more of a Blockbuster than "Toronto gets Bautista!" Which was nothing more than 2-3 sentences on a transactions page at the time.
ReplyDeleteI imagine it was more: "Jays, Bucs swap Diaz for Bautista."
This indeed is a much bigger trade. I expect big things from Marisnick, Niccolino should be another Hernderson Alvarez-type, and Hech a Rey Ordonez with a tiny bit of pop.
Well worth everything, but I also expect Buerhle to be begging to leave Canada by the trade deadline, no matter how competitive the team is at that point.
