Jays spend some money and trade Liriano to Houston and take on a worthless Aoki in salary but at least land Teoscar Hernandez as an OF for the future which I like!
They also traded Joe Smith to Cleveland for a couple of low level prospects. LHP Tom Pannone in AA looks like he could become good in a couple of years!
I don't think this makes the Jays anywhere near relevant in 2018 but you never know if they sign / trade in the off-season!
Nice. Problem is he can't dh in NL. At least they want him at 3B. Everytime I see Grichuk make a catch I can't help but think that no way would Jose have caught that, including at least two catches yesterday. I don't care if Grichuk can't hit but at least right field isn't an empty wasteland.
You can't unretire a number. It shames the franchise if we ever find a real deserving player to retire. They waited so long and this sets the bar so low we might as well retire about 20 more numbers so it doesn't look so pathetic.

No monies required.

Great man, great pitcher, great Jay.
And at 40, his life was really just beginning.
Very, very sad day.

His giveaway shirt on Thurs was immediately replaced with a Solarte shirt by the Jays.
Blue Jays Central is going to be interesting today.

$38M is tough to swallow.
Like I said.
Retiring Alomar's number is now the Blue Jays biggest mistake and a franchise embarrassment.
How did I know?
