    No it won't. He was a cancer in Atlanta and a gay basher in Toronto. Age MIGHT make him grow up and that's about it. Solid defender though.

    It's a great move by the Rays cause of the low cost but I'm not sure they will get the big turnaround everyone expects. He is one of the best defensive SS out there but him and his ****ing GDP's where all I can remember. Florida is retarded I'm sure they could of gotten more for him.

    i think it will be lower than that, they will probably trade Nolasco.

    Not true... He said some of his best friends are gay, his hairdresser, his interior decorator, his party planner... the list goes on. He loves gay people

    Great trade for the Rays. Yunel will probably bounce back next year. Still don't mind the trade from Toronto's perspective, but I hate the fact that he's back in the division. When he is on he's an excellent player.

    i was expecting a lot out of yunel when i watched him play for the braves, but was disaapointed in what i heard about him. Could have been a legit gold glove at ss, 30 hr, 100 rbi's, and .300 avg type guy.

    Little about toxic
    Mostly about last year of his contract, so lesser player value.

    HAHAHAHA, his ceiling was never of that calibur. He did nothing in atlanta that would ever signify he could reach that level of stardum. His highest level of HR production in one single year was 14. Only 53 for his career.
