For the famous PBTNL

 

No word on if Lo Viste stays in Toronto or comes with Boni.

Damn, I wish we would have brought him back just for the 'lo viste'

Boni + Jose would have been a great combo

The thought of Solano, Hech, and Bonifacio in the same lineup at the same time makes me throw up in my mouth a little bit.

That just screams 'Carlos Rodon' to me.

How about Solano, Hech, Polanco, Boni, Lucas, JP, Brantly?

Thats even worse. Possibly the worst lineup in major league history.

CF Bonifacio

2B Solano

1B Lucas

RF Dobbs

SS Hech

3B Polanco

C Brantly

LF Pierre

 

Yep. Doable.

That is terrifying.

That is the worst thing I have ever seen.

 

I will attempt to balance the scales with this: http://www.milb.com/multimedia/vpp.jsp?content_id=29646667&sid=milb

Okay FO get boni here and let's put that lineup out there. over/under 10 HR over a 162 game season

Wow the blue jays absolutely annihilated their future this past offseason for nothing: Marisnick, Nicolino, Desclafini, Syndegaard, D'Arnaud. Plus i feel like im missing 1 more.

 

 

Edit- Hech and Henderson Alvarez too. They literally traded an entire possible starting rotation.

As bad as the press for that trade was for the Fish, it really seems to me that we reped Toronto...Though from what I've heard we "should have" gotten a better deal?

Did anyone else notice that the Jays called up a guy named Kevin Pillar

 

His name is basically Kevin Millar with a P, and he looks eerily like him. At first I thought it was a parody twitter account, but holy shit this is a real guy lol

Damn, I wish we would have brought him back just for the 'lo viste'

 

 

I hope not. The Lo Viste was super douchey.

To be fair, the only reason why that trade looks good right now is because we got rid of Mark Buehrle's salary which is an accomplishment by itself.

 

The players we've gotten back haven't been overly impressive though.

I wouldn't say that's the only reason. Even if our return hasn't lit the world on fire... the future potential of everyone we got (except for Mathis) is far greater than the almost foregone conclusion that in two years Toronto will only have Jose Reyes left from that trade, and maybe a shell of Mark Buerhle. Buck, gone... Boni, gone... JJ, horribly underperformed and more than likely gone. The Blue Jays are gonna be a wreck in 2015. The Marlins should (fingers crossed of course), should be worth a damn in 2015.

If the Jays will be hurting a couple of years from now, it will be more because of the money they have invested in overpriced contracts and not the absence of talent they dealt to the Marlins.

 

If the Marlins are competing in 2015 it will be more because of the players they've drafted themselves than those acquired from Toronto.

The fact that they didnt get Syndergaard or D'Arnaud back from the Blue Jays takes most of the oomph away from the trade.
