I don't think Groshans is redundant and still remember the Jays drafting Romero instead of Tulo because they had Hill and Adams.....probably a better comp was trading Michael Young for...

I obviously don't work in an MLB front office or anything, but I wouldn't. I think Pearson has that kind of potential and fairly quickly so there's no real need to do it.

Honestly, I'd just go to...

They could potentially fit Brantley in without having to trade anyone of significance.

C Janssen
1B Tellez
2B Biggio
SS Bichette
3B Guerrero
LF Gurriel
CF Springer
RF Hernandez

Agreed.

I don't think that should stop them from going after him now, I'm just torn on the package it's going to cost.

Not overly excited to add Votto at this point in his career..

I thought I read that Bo was fine to move positions for a large upgrade at SS which Lindor is.

I agree that Groshans would make the most sense organizationally from the Jays point of view, I just...

Rumors of Lindor's availability this off season and speculation that the Jays are a real potential destination. What would you deem as acceptable trade compensation to the Indians with or without an...

Joey Anderson (prospect acquired from the Devils for Johnsson) is signed now too, 3 years for $2.25 mil. The first two years are two-way contract with the last being a one-way.

The Leafs signed Hutchinson back to a 2 year $1.45 mil two-way deal. Makes sense because now they can be onside with the expansion draft rules by exposing him, but I don't understand the signing of...

Dermott signed, 1 year $874K...shocking and good on him for taking a hometown discount

Mikheyev signed, avoiding his arbitration hearing tomorrow. 2 years/$3.29 mil for $1.645 AAV.

I believe he filed for $2.7mil on a 1 year deal versus the team who filed for 2 years at $1mil per, so...

Ha, bleacher report thinks the Leafs and Flames should swap Kerfoot for Bennett. I like Bennett, but a little concerned that the Leafs speed is going to be quite a bit down from this past season.
...

Rumors out there that the Leafs are talking to Joe Thornton. Not sure where he would fit in at this point, but it doesn't hurt to add more depth.

I feel like Kerfoot is the next one out the door..

Looks like the d is pretty much set now unless they still plan making more trades:

LD Reilly
RD Brodie

LD Muzzin
RD Holl

I like it, seems like the perfect partner for Reilly.

Looks like some trades are coming to eliviate some cap space. Would still like to see them get Weegar to add more bite to the back end. I...

Probably John Craighead.

Anyway, there's rumors that the Leafs won't be signing any FA dmen and will instead focus on the trade route. One rumor is them talking to the Panthers about MacKenzie...

Wayne Simmonds 1 year $1.5mil.

I'm a little surprised they went that high, not saying it's a bad contract just that they need to pinch pennies to stay within the cap.

Oh geez..forgot about Tyler Biggs.

Another example is the Nylander draft. A bunch of folks wanted the Leafs to draft Nick Ritchie instead, including myself.

Mikheyev and Dermott received qualifying offers today.

Gauthier, Rodrigues, Bracco were not so they will all be free agents come Friday.

Not to be a total homer, but I saw an interview with Dubas where he acknowledged that you shouldn't be drafting for grit. You draft for skill and then look to acquire those guys, which makes sense....

Korpisalo outplayed Andersen though and is only 26 years old, making under $3 million.

Leafs just resigned Spezza for 1 year at $700K.

The rumors from this site seem to be a bunch of b.s. but it was interesting to read that the Jackets might move one of their goalies.
