>Graziano has a source who continues to insist the Blue Jays will explore the market for ace Roy Halladay, who has two years and $30MM left on his deal.FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
ITT: Blue Jays fans just now realize that they had no shot next season.
>>478148I'm pretty sure we all knew we had no shot next year. We just hoped we could keep Doc just a bit longer.
I will not allow it!
Suddenly finding themselves the FOURTH best team in the division, the Jays need to start planning for the future. Halladay is one of the most proven pitchers in baseball; he can get a stellar package of prospects in return on a trade.
>>478205JP Ricciardi is the problem.
The Yankees will trade for him or sign him when he's a free agent.
If it's a Halladay for Pujols trade or Hanley Ramirez, then I'd allow it.
>>Halladay for PujolsAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHACardinals fans would be rioting in the streets if management ever traded away Pujols
>>478217Cards need pitching, we need hitting. Fair deal IMO. Take it or leave it!
If the Jays do this, then it's obvious that Retardi will an hero.
>>478218Cards certainly DO need pitching; I'm not disputing that. But they won't trade Pujols to get it.
Then we'll go to the Marlins to get Hanley Ramirez. We need a SS and a great hitter! He's PERFECT!
>>478230>>Marlins>>two years and $30MMHalladay makes more than their entire payroll; no way they'll make that trade
Are the Jays even close to being good if they trade him? If not, then you have to build for the future. Dump anything with value and draft and develop the right way.
>>478262They wouldn't be BAD, but they'd make no progress in a suddenly-loaded division.It's time to sell off the old players and start again.
>>478268Well, they are bad now.No progress = still bad
I think Jays should just push for a new Canadian division. No chance of them getting to the playoffs whilst in the same division as Sox, Yankees and to a lesser extent, Rays. I'm sure the Expos would love to come back.
Jays will make the playoffs next year.
>>478310You don't even exist. What do you know?
>>478311Now now Dawkins! Don't want to be Mr. Angry Poo now will we?
Halladay is every contending team's wet dream: a mid-season pick-up who won't be leaving at the end of the season. The Jays will get shittons of interest if/when they put him up for sale next summer.
lol @ Halladay
brb, yankees
>>478143No worries OP Graziano is a fucktard. his stories have been trollin' for the past few days. he said cc to the dodgers was imminent, k-rod to the mets was already done and that tex wants to sign with the nationals. dont trust anything that graziano writes hes a fucking idiot.
>>479061In two years.
>>479065Joel Sherman makes up more shit.
>>479061Phil Hughes and Austin Jackson for Halladay.
>>479083Ian Kennedy and a player to be named later for Halladay.
A bag of balls, Derek Jeter's jock, and Phil Hughes' shatter confidence for Halladay.
my world got flipped, turned upside down
>>479107WOW I'D FUCK THAT PUPPET
