Blue Jays Discussion: Off-Season Madness the 12th: We don't know Dickey (about any extension. Yet)

[calcal798]

@JonHeymanCBS
#mets, #jays still working to finalize. Jays willing to include d'arnaud, but said to want prospect back with dickey

Sorry guys

Michael Fuller sounds a lot like AA's type.

 

[Mason10]

I'm going to kill myself.

I'm going to join you.

 

[91Kadri91*]

If you guys had to give up one of D'arnaud or Gose. Which one would you trade ?

Gose, no questions asked.

 

[Leo Getz]

Ya, why would we want a CY Young winner?!?! Lets keep our top prospect so we have a chance to win a WS series years from now, instead of taking advantage of all the players we have in their prime right now.

It is a balancing act. You want to win now but you want to keep the pipeline stocked for the future. What if we trade away all our prospects and don't win, then we are set back again.

Do love the aggressiveness though. Almost two decades without postseason ball is rough, and a legit contending team would hit the spot.

Please no...

 

[DatsyukianDeke*]

Rosenthal is convinced Dickey won't have an extension signed before being traded here. Looks like we will have to pray that he resigns, I can't even imagine losing Johnson and Dickey next year after moving all these prospects.

Doesn't seem like an AA deal

 

[p.l.f.]

there's gotta be more
i'm hoping for something like:

d'arnaud
syndegaard (preferably sanchez)
lind
buck
for
dickey
ike davis
thole

I would probably do this. It would definitely hurt though.

Syndergaard has to GTFO from that proposal and be replaced by a Jenkins/McGuire/Nolin type.

Where did you see/hear that?

That's what would hurt the most.

But really though, if we win who cares?

 

[Bravid Nonahan]

what's the purpose of Thole, lmao

 

[Swervin81]

Dickey's special catcher.

 

[The Nemesis]

what's the purpose of Thole, lmao

backup for Arencibia presuming Buck is moved in the trade. And Thole has experience catching Dickey, which would be useful considering JP isn't exactly a pitch-framing/catching stalwart.

And if we don't?

Sportsnet Connected just had him on.

Someone to catch the knucler cause JPA would be a disaster.

 

[p.l.f.]

he caught dickey's knuckler - who won 20 games so....

JPA kind of sucks fielding

I hope AA doesn't make the trade then.

I just heard that on sportsnet

 

[trellaine201]

Im thinking w/o extension forget it.

Sports net would need clown music playing in the backround if JP catches Dickey.

Thanks. We need that kind of confirmation with TV/radio sources. People went kind of nutty with all the rumors and talk during the Darvish sweepstakes. We need to keep things in control.
