Re: 2012 Baseball Offseason Player Movement Thread
Anyone want to lay odds the Jays don't do shit?
Melky at two years, 16 million...
Shaun Marcum visiting too, probably will sign if they're continuing to throw money around.
Spending sprees like this rarely work out, especially given the talent level acquired (more of a consistency issue for some guys).

Isn't that what people said about Miami last year?

I don't remember people saying it. Once Ozzie was announced as manager, all expectations went away. Originally Posted by b00bie

Re: 2012 Baseball Offseason Player Movement Thread
Reyes is aging and forever injured.
Buerhle is not nearly worth his contract.
Johnson has arm issues.
Buck is a reserve.
Bonifacio is a pinch runner.
Cabrera has had half of a good season and we know why. Originally Posted by CavsFanLA

He had a great half of a season, but he's been good for about a year and a half now. Originally Posted by b00bie

Sources tell @mlb.com's @joefrisaro that OF Juan Pierre has agreed to a one-year deal with @marlins.

Re: 2012 Baseball Offseason Player Movement Thread
I love how b00bie rips every team in the league but never finds fault with the Indians' moves. This guy even rips on the AL champ Tigers, but the Indians? Nope, too much to criticize their "highly respected" front office. Originally Posted by b00bie

Re: 2012 Baseball Offseason Player Movement Thread
This would be hilarious.According to ESPN's Buster Olney, former Indians manager Manny Acta has been strongly reviewed by the Blue Jays.
This confirms earlier speculation that the Jays had interest in Acta. Olney reports that Jim Tracy and Jim Riggleman are also among the final names being discussed. The Jays are believed to be "close" to hiring their next manager. Acta, who was fired by the Indians late in 2012, has a history with GM Alex Anthopoulos.
All of those saying the Jays really are making an effort and praising their front office, only to go out a hire a manager you all hated. Originally Posted by CavsFanLA

Re: 2012 Baseball Offseason Player Movement Thread
And the Jays decide to go back to the past and hire John Gibbons (Tor. Mgr. from 2004-2008)....
