pretty confident you can say bye to Brown. Maybe Drabek but i think the jays need more hitting prospects then pitching right now.

Carlos Triunfel, Adam Moore, J.A. Happ, and Michael Taylor are the four rumored players to be going to the Blue Jays.

The Blue Jay orginally asked for Triunfel, Moore, Saunders and Aumont when it was Blue Jays & Mariners discussing trade.

You really think the Phillies gave up the best prospect? The Mariners didn't get Lee for free you know. I'll be willing to bet they gave up more prospects to the Blue Jays than the Phillies did.

that'd make sense for taylor. Blue Jays need a big bat (he potentially is) and the phils have howard already

michael saunders and brandon morrow from seatle
dominic brown ja happ and 2 others from philly

that's my guess maybe replace morrow with someone else.

If the Phillies can keep Drabek and Brown...that would HUGE "steal" for them!

Absolutely perfect from my perspective as a sox fan. Keep Halladay out of the AL east and away from the Yanks, and take Lackey down within a matter of hours.


AND shows that SEA is a true player, meaning that Bay has a chance of signing there, shipping the Sox the 20th.

You an have all the pitching you want, but Youkilis and Ortiz won't carry the lineup.

The sox better hope Bay doesn't sign elsewhere, as Holliday want's more than Bay.

I don't think the Phillies deal both Lee and Happ.

Even if they lost ja happ, michael taylor and cliff lee?

I'm not a fan of Taylor or Happ...Domonic is the future!

happ didn't impress you last season?!

i can see what you mean though, his stuff isn't NASTY like drabek's can potentially be.

No. It will be Taylor or Brown and a mid-level guy and 2 others (not Happ, Drabek) and then 2 guys from SEA (Morrow and some1 else)

Re: Phills and Halladay heating up??

What amazes me is how deep the Phil's farm system was to pull off so many deals as of late. Seems like they've stripmined their farm system, but it's definitely paying dividends.

To still have Brown, Drabek, and Happ at this point still boggles my mind.

i know and they'll still have at least 1 top 20 prospect in their system if the deals go through.

Dominick Brown or Michael Taylor
Lee or Happ
1 or 2 Lower level prospects

Why would they need to do more than that to get Halladay? I guess if they kept some of the prospects from Seattle they'd need to give up more, but it kind of defeats the purpose. I don't think Drabek is going anywhere regardless.

Re: Phills and Halladay heating up??

Maybe the Phillies should have just traded for Halladay in the first place. They are probably giving up more in total now then if they would have 5 months ago.

Re: Lee to mariners, Halladay to Phills?

i don't understand why the Phil's would want to do that. Did they not watch Lee carry them in the post-season?

Think of it this way: the Phil's still got the rental use out of Lee. How many t-shirts, jerseys, or tickets did Lee sell for Philly? They definitely got a great bang for their buck. Now, if they get Halladay, they get to reload the hype machine and get people to open their wallets all over again.
