That Giancarlo Stanton. He's a clever guy.

Hope he succeeds. He's a very nice guy.

30-year-old who looks pretty terrible. Meh.

That's bad business Yeah, Tigers have about a 2-3 years window here before their contracts start to cripple them, unless, of course, the Dodgers swoop in and relieve everyone of bad contracts.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Nov 14, 2012 -> 04:48 PM) Lol. I'm excited for Watch Dogs. Basically it's GTA + Assassins Creed set in Chicago. Too bad it'll be out in 2-3 years on the next consoles. Yeah, Watch Dogs looks phenomenal. Red Dead Redemption may be the best game on this current generation of consoles, seriously. LA Noire was a really cool idea, but I agree that it started to get boring. I love all the GTA games, but I usually find the side missions lacking.

QUOTE (Cali @ Nov 14, 2012 -> 01:24 AM) Wonder if Hahn will share the same MO as Kenny and do his trades before the winter meetings. I do not. I'm not sure Hahn knows all the GMs like Kenny did. I predicted Day 2 of the WM as my guess because he would take Day 1 to get acquainted with everyone and send out feelers. Then again, I could be completely wrong and he knows the entire league already, who knows.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Nov 13, 2012 -> 03:15 PM) We use it frequently enough that the water isn't in there for more than a couple of days at most. I think our Keurig only holds 4 cups or so. I run it once empty before making tea or hot chocolate because the coffee builds up on the inside otherwise. I feel like ours holds a half gallon of water. It's a large tank on the side.

Anyone care to guess what the Marlins projected payroll for 2014 is? $0.

For those who may not believe SOXOBAMA after that Angel Pagan rumor.... http://www.masnsports.com/school_of_roch/2...ear-voting.html

QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Nov 13, 2012 -> 06:56 PM) I finished the story yesterday but Im still at like 43% because I didnt do any of the side missions while I was going through it. Its my first AC game and I really enjoyed it. Have either of you played the online yet? Oh ok, I tend to do the sidemissions as I go, and the hunting and myths ones especially because those are so fun. I would guess I'm about 60% done w/ the story line, about 45% done overall.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Nov 13, 2012 -> 04:03 PM) What a scoop It was a joke, because 3 straight people all said the same thing. I was following suit.

Marlins tossing in a whopping $4M. Toronto throwing in RHP Anthony DeSclafani and C Jeff Mathis. Ricky Nolasco will be next piece to be traded according to Joel Sherman.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Nov 13, 2012 -> 07:15 PM) Look at his signature. He appears to be a Miami Heat fan, or LeBron James fan, or hates Michael Jordan.

QUOTE (flippedoutpunk @ Nov 13, 2012 -> 07:14 PM) sorry for not clarifying Sincerely, Former Marlins Fan Ok, that clears it up. I didn't realize you used to be a Marlins fan.

QUOTE (flippedoutpunk @ Nov 13, 2012 -> 07:09 PM) Id love to see Stanton on the sox, there would be Joe Borchard-esque HRs every home game. This franchise is a disgrace, im dying to hear what the explanation from the higher ups is going to be. Theres never any damn consistency with us, its really amazing seeing your team get blown up every 2 years and watching former favorites flourish with other teams. Its only a matter of time before Stanton bolts, hopefully its to the white sox and not anywhere on the west coast. LOL what? How does this trade make us look bad? You think we had an extra $40M or so to throw at this deal? Jays are taking on TONS of salary, salary the Sox didn't have the chance to throw around. I thought you were talking about the Marlins at first, but then you said "us", so I'm confused.

As I understand it.... Toronto gets..... Josh Johnson Mark Buehrle Jose Reyes John Buck Emilio Bonaficio Miami gets..... Yunel Escobar Adeiny Hechavarria Henderson Alvarez Jake Marisnick OR Anthony Gose Justin Nicolino JP Arencibia OR Jeff Mathis OR Wilson Marlins 2012 Payroll - About $100M Marlins 2013 Payroll - About $20M LOL.

How many of these guys do the Jays send off somewhere else for prospects? There is no way they can absorb that much payroll, right? Just counting additions for 2013.... Johnson -$13.75 ($13.75 left) Reyes - $10 ($96 left) Buehrle - $11 ($52 left) Buck - $6 ($6 left) Bonifacio - $4? ($4? left) That's nearly $45M in just 2013 payroll, and about $172M in overall money.

This type of trade isn't even possible in The Show.

Buster Olney ‏@Buster_ESPN Jake Marisnick, P, is one of the players going to Marlins...

Jon Morosi ‏@jonmorosi One source told me Johnson, Buehrle, Reyes, Buck and Bonifacio are all going to #BlueJays. I am working to confirm this. @MLBONFOX Henderson Alvarez also included.

Jon Morosi ‏@jonmorosi Source: Justin Nicolino is going to the #Marlins.

Marlins might as well trade everyone but Stanton. Or say f*** it and deal Giancarlo as well.

Jon Morosi ‏@jonmorosi Emilio Bonifacio, come on down!

So far.... Jays Get: SP Josh Johnson SP Mark Buehrle SS Jose Reyes Marlins get: SS Yunel Escobar IF Adeiny Hechavarria And more players said to be involved. Holy mother of trades. And out of NO WHERE too.

Jon Morosi ‏@jonmorosi One source tells me Jose Reyes is expected to go to Toronto, as well. This is not a joke. OMG.
