Woo Hooo

I will miss O-Dog too, but we really needed a Power Hitter and Glaus gives us someone who will consistently pound out 30+ homers a season barring injury...

Great deal for us After seeing what's gone down in Boston, we might be a better team by the time this is all said and done

Yay! What an early X-Mas present!

Re: D-Backs looking to ship Glaus to Jays or Red Sox

The Jays really aren't playing around this offseason it's almost like they are answering the Yanks signing Damon, while the Red Sox do nothing..

Not to steal the thread but this is one of the most laughable things I've seen in a few days. I forgot getting Beckett, Lowell, Seanz, Mota and Marte is nothing.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Sox finish third in the division this year, as long as the Jays somehow finish first.

Whatever happened to the Orioles being interested in Hinske? They're the only ones who'll take him off our hands

Re: D-Backs looking to ship Glaus to Jays or Red Sox

No way they get Dunn for Hillenbrand. They would just be looking to get a mid-to-low level prospect, just to dump salary.

That's what I figured...maybe we can get a catcher.

Yeah, Qurioz is NOT a capable backup, and you figure that with Zaun's age, a good backup is never a bad idea.

I just meant as far as after the Damon signed, but yea the Sox did do a few good moves and are getting trashed pretty hard. Still a long way till the season begins but it seems the Sox have created just as many holes as they have filled.

I'm a little disappointed. The Jays did give up a lot to get him, however, and I'm not sure the Sox could have matched that.

It's been two days...what do you expect them to do after Damon signed? LOL

And I don't see how they're getting trashed. Their pitching is much improved and pitching wins championships. They'll figure out their CF/SS situations before the season starts, so I'm not worried.

I'm actually more worried about the Jays improving than the Yankees.

No we didn't...

Batista was redundant for us. We had to use for him.

Hudson while a great defensive player, struggles on offense and has a very capable replacement who plays very good defense.

Plus we got a B level prospect in the deal.

I'm going to miss O-dogg he was my favourite Jay....but it's for the better I guess.

Damn I thought I had read earlier that the deal included Brandon League. I can't believe the D'Backs added in a B level prospect in the deal. If anything, it should be the Jays sending a prospect to Arizona. Bad deal for Arizona, I think they could have gotten more whether it be from the Jays or Sox.

Yeah, when I realized Brandon League wasn't in the deal, I was shocked.

Re: D-Backs looking to ship Glaus to Jays or Red Sox

Great move for the Jays. As a Sox fan, it sucks to see the AL East getting this great, but its also awesome because we haven't seen a trio of teams with this talent in the division for a long time. Its incredibly early, but just on paper, this could be one of the most compeitive divisions (as far as the top 3 go) in the last decade.
