    this is what happens when you lose out in free agency and make a move because you feel you have to make one just for the sake of doing something.

    The short version of the above: desperation move.

    As has been sort of said, at that rate, why not just throw that money at one of the FA's? Thanks for no longer mattering LAANA, be sure to grab a consolation prize on your way out.

    It wouldn't surprise me to see the Jays trade either Napoli or Rivera for a piece that makes more sense for them.

    I just find it ironic that the Angels supposedly upgraded their offense by adding Wells, yet they subtracted more home runs combined from their end of the deal.

    I just liked how simple he broke down the trade.

    Actually you get obvious credit too, I'm sleep deprived, forgive me. Been partying since the Bartolo Colon signing.

    I neglected to point out that the Jays don't really deserve credit for dumping Wells. If they were smart, they would have never signed him to that monstrosity of a contract to begin with.

    Different GMs. AA definitely deserves credit.
