We need a nice Colby Rasmus signing to make everyone feel better today.

How would Dan have time to do that with all THIS stuff swirling around???

I truly hope Toronto makes a lowball offer and PA laughs then they go turn their attention to poaching some other winning organization so we can move on

I really hope the Jays are dumb enough to give up a stud for Dan.

If you want to get out of a commitment, are you still committed? I make a commitment to go out to dinner at 8 on Saturday night. I call up the date and say, hey do you mind if we call it off? In your mind, I am still committed to going out on that date. In my mind, I am trying to get out of that commitment.

Every April, I wish I didn't have to pay taxes, yet pay them I must. I don't think your dating situation comes under the purview of contract law, unless, of course, she is paying you millions of dollars to take her out every Saturday night for four years per a signed contract. But, yeah, I do think it is a pretty low thing to do to her, unless you are sick or some emergency has come up.

Getting Norris would make me feel a lot better about losing Chen next year since he's left handed.

[TonySoprano]

Kinda like some of the Oriole reporters but you wont dare call them out.

Think again when the time comes

[ArtVanDelay]

Pompey would be fine. Norris would be #2. Sanchez #3.

Pompey as the top option for compensation? No way. Norris #1, Sanchez #2, Hoffman #3, Pompey #4 IMO.

MLB needs to mind it's own f'ing business. Their vendetta against the O's is really becoming obvious.

This is an interesting story about Beeston

http://news.nationalpost.com/2015/01/14/toronto-blue-jays-president-paul-beeston-could-be-on-the-way-out-but-no-one-told-him-that/

...

In the meantime, someone above him in the Rogers hierarchy started placing mysterious phone calls, to the Chicago White Sox about executive vice-president Ken Williams ? or rather to Williams himself ? and to the Baltimore Orioles about Dan Duquette, ...[/i]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if the Blow Jays talked directly with Kenny Williams... uh... Isn't that a first class ticket to Tampertown?

[SteveO]

Lol well if we trade DD to Toronto, any chance we can make him take that stupid Ubaldo contract with him

DD, Ubaldo and Matusz for Norris and Pompey.....works for me.

Yeah it's pretty sickening.

Works for me too but doesn't work for the Blow Jays.

I'd rather keep Dan and his entourage than any 3 prospects that Toronto might (wouldn't) give up. In Dan We Trust.

So now that we have a name of the person who's been getting the media to do his dirty will we see a lawsuit for tampering?
