Snider shaking hands in dugout. Looks like he's been traded.


Whoaaa. For Garza perhaps?


Tonight is fun

 

[thefatguy]

Jays acquire Brad Lincoln from Pirates for Travis Snider.

 

[thefatguy]

To PIT
For P Brad Lincoln

 

[Hallsgator]

omg Neal Huntington wins. what a trade

 

[aarne13]

Wtf? I almost threw up in my mouth. >:/
Lincoln???? That must be a joke.

 

[markakis8]

wow, go Pirates.

does Marte go back down? he got 3 hits tonight. Does Snider a 4th OF?

I mean that OF is pretty crowded now if Alvarez and McGehee are on the corners you have McCutchen, Jones, Marte, Presley and Snider out there.

 

[scotty216brs]

Great trade for the Pirates!

 

[craiger122003]

Pirates are probably not done. The Jays decided to pay it forward since they got a steal on Rasmus.

 

[RZimm11]

I'll take it! Go Bucs!

 

[aarne13]

Wow. I'm pretty bummed. Sigh.

Thames looks like he will be up to replace Lunchbox.

This trade seemed to come out of the blue, no? Haven't heard any Snider trade rumors before this...

 

[aarne13]

That's the thing with the Jays, they don't discuss anything. If you see a rumor that includes the Jays it will not happen.

Been hearing everyone and their grandmother named as coming to the Bucs the last 2 weeks, never once did I hear Snider.

Wonder what the radio guys will have to say about this tomorrow?

 

[aarne13]

Thames to the Mariners for Delabar. :/

Thames is now gone. Damn, BJ's are wheeling and dealing!

 

[scotty216brs]

On the other side of the coin the Pirates did deal one of their best bullpen arms. Pitching does win games so hopefully the rest of their staff continues to pitch well the rest of the eason.

 

[thefatguy]

The writing was on the wall with Sniders poor start and demotion to AAA.
With all the injuries, he wasn't even the first call up.

I think he underwhelmed Jays management long enough.

Personally I would have traded Lind or Morrow.

 

[aarne13]

Snider started the year in AAA. He got yanked around by mgmt , add some injuries . Not a recipe for success.
Bullpen arms are a dime a dozen. 24yr old mashers don't grow on trees. Very disappointing . I wouldn't trade Morrow.
