If Texas offers Olt and Martin or TOR offers TDA and Gose, id jizz my pantsQuote:

And out of curiosity, why are some ok with a Bourjos+ Trumbo but not Gose+ JPA? JPA is basically Trumbo but can play catcher, and Gose has just as high if not higher ceiling than Bourjos.
acceptable offers yes. I mean offers that will make the Mets so serious to pull the trigger that they don't play the market a bit more. The way it sounds, Mets want to make a deal today. In that case, that means the offer must be amazing and can't miss.Quote:

JPA has a much worst SLG than TrumboQuote:

Trumbo>JPA
Dickey wont sign an extension in TOR according to Joel Sherman
JPA and Gose would be a let down. JPA only plus is power and played at a hitters park. Both of them had their best years playing at Las Vegas and the PCL. Wait to we see how much "better" our hitters are in the PCL.Quote:

Heyman
Signs point to #bluejays leading in dickey chase. Have the prospects to get it done.
That could be a roadblockQuote:

Ill be upset if its JPA and Gose unless Sanchez or Syndergaard is included
If the package is based around JP Arencibia, then this is a HUGE, HUGE disappointment. I've watched the Blue Jays for years now living in Ottawa, this is NOT the guy we want. RA should be getting a Mark Trumbo package, not JPA. Travis D'Arnaud, yes.
d'Arnaud or bust. Arencibia+ would be a major let down. I'd take Olt over JPA and Gose all day.Quote:
