One thing Id like to do is thank Edwin Jackson for playing his butt off. Nice guy and a good player just to bad he was paid so much.

Didnt TLR come out yesterday and say Rasmus refuses to listen to coaches? Why on Earth would you want a player like that on your team? We already have something similar to that playing in CF.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 10:27 AM) Would y'all have done Jackson + Viciedo + Reed for Rasmus? That answer should be a resounding HELL NO!

Jays were a better fit for Rasmus. They have prospects the Cards want. We do not. Its rather simple

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 10:22 AM) Hey. I've been consistent in my love and praise of his tool set and future studness. Yeah I wasnt directing that at you just a few others in here

Wow so now everyone is in love with Rasmus? I remember a bunch of people saying his was Rios 2.0. Now were screaming at Kenny because he may not want him?

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 10:13 AM) Was there a roster spot already open for DeAza? Or has something else gone down ahead of the potential trade? Nope it has to be this trade

Joelsherman1 Joel Sherman Hear #Whitesox Edwin Jackson to #Bluejays close, but not complete yet because $$ not yet approved and Tor trying to spin him to another team from twitter

I just saw a tweet saying the deal isnt done because the money isnt finalized yet and the Jays are trying to flip him

Sounds like they needed this trade to go through for a roster spot

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 09:48 AM) This could maybe indicate there is a 3-way deal, or a conditional 2 trades, in the works. He just reported on his twitter that the Jackson Blue Jays trade is in the works. Seems he is still trying to get up to speed here.

If Danks goes we better be getting some damn good prospects

QUOTE (Anderson Cooper's Quivering @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 09:32 AM) Rosenthal usually is pretty reliable and won't post or write about something unless he was able to substantiate it. I would "assume" that the fix is in on this trade going down. We should check Teahen's twitter. *shrug* Its not just Rosenthal either its Morosi as well. Both Fox reporters.

Danks should garner a ton of interest. Yankees come to mind.

I love this on mlbtraderumors "The rumor was first reported ten hours ago on Twitter by a fellow named Doug Seyller" lol

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 09:21 AM) I wonder why the Blue Jays would go after Edwin Jackson. They aren't making the playoffs this year. Maybe they will resign him?

QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 09:15 AM) Uh oh: Ken_Rosenthal Ken Rosenthal Sources: #WhiteSox in serious talks on EJax, Teahen to #BlueJays for Frasor and prospect. Danks, Floyd also on market. #tradedeadline #MLB Holy crap he was right

QUOTE (kapzk @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 09:12 AM) k0na Doug Seyller #WhiteSox Jackson and Teahen going to Toronto for frasor and a minor leaguer...de aza coming up from minors. 10 hours ago ImDaBaron James Bond @k0na and how do you know this? 10 hours ago in reply to ↑ Doug Seyller @k0na Doug Seyller @ImDaBaron I'm sorry but I can not reveal my sources. Go Sox! I am starting to feel this trade is a done deal now. We are just waiting for the announcement. This guy seems to have the inside track on the deals. Not the answer I was looking for when I asked him where he got this from.

It doesnt make sense because its prob full of crap

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:49 PM) Um... Not buying this, unless it's a really good prospect. Not when Jackson would be a piece for Rasmus. Yes because Jackson really garners a really good prospect and those Rasmus rumors werent full of poo at all.

No actual source except a guy saying trust me and some random guy on twitter.

That looks like a random fan tweeting this

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:33 PM) Trust me. Good source. Oh one of those sources....great

Source please

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 10:22 PM) What are their problems now outside of starting pitching and needing another reliever? Their pen should be now that New Mexico and Coke are in their pen. Starting pitching is a really big one. Its not like just one will solve their problems.
