In a blockbuster deal with Toronto, Miami will reportedly send shortstop Jose Reyes and starters Josh Johnson and Mark Buehrle, along with catcher John Buck and utility man Emilio Bonifacio to the Blue Jays. The Marlins are reportedly going to receive a haul of Toronto's young players and three top prospects, including shortstops Adeiny Hechavarria and Yunel Escobar, pitchers Henderson Alvarez and Justin Nicolino and outfielder Jake Marisnick. FOXSports.com first reported the deal on Twitter.
The Jays have been bamboozled in this deal. Reyes is the only sure thing coming our way. While I agree Romero is no ace on this team even before the trade he is at best a number 4 next year. Numbers don't lie and pitching in the east isn't going to help their (new pitchers) cause. Maybe he did this to say to Josh Hamilton we are going after the Yankees and we are willing to give you money too. They still need to everyday outfielders for Left and Center. Yes I said center, cause Rasmus ain't good enough. Plus we still need a second base guy. Lawrie power needs to improve. if we had got Giancarlo Stanton in this deal, then it would have been a good deal.
AA had to do this to save his job.
