Someone in Toronto has big balls…..
Apperantly the Toronto Blue Jays have told teams they won’t trade middle reliever Scott Downs unless they are blown away with an offer.
Whoever is GM of this franchise has real balls to seriously ask the Yanks for top prospect Jesus Montero for Downs!
Apparently he thinks Omar Minaya is GM’ing the Yanks. Yeah this makes a lot of sense, Montero was the main piece in a deal to bring Cliff Lee to Bronxtown and now that that deal fell through, why the hell wouldn’t the Yanks agree to trade him for a middle reliever!
Trade the best pitcher in baseball (Doc Halladay) for a crappy set of minor leaguers and ask the world for a crappy middle reliever. I guess GM’ing isnt for everyone.
Isiah Thomas just contacted the Blue Jays brass to give him some tips on how to successfully ruin a franchise this well since he never had the chutzpah to offer Eddie Curry for Pau Gasol.

Hughes looked as good as any reliever last year and instead of just keeping him there and leaving

Now the Yankees will have to wait two years to get him after the Mariners will be unable to make payroll and sell him in a firesale….
