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

[The Nemesis]

Carry on. And 2 friendly reminders:

1) No unsourced rumors, and no rumors from anything less than accredited media sources or members. This means that it either comes from a media outlet (TSN, Sportsnet, ESPN, Fox sports, radio, etc) or from someone affiliated with such an outlet, or a team itself. Twitter feeds must verifiably belong to those people (eg Ken Rosenthal, Jon Morosi, Shi David, Buster Olney, etc). Retweets by official sources only count if the original tweet is legit too.

2) As you can see, I'm not averse to Dickey puns, but keep them tasteful. We can't get too vulgar or across the line.

thanks.

Am told #BlueJays will not give up Travis d'Arnaud in any trade with #Mets for R.A. Dickey.

Like 24 hours ago. It's been mentioned that JPA/Gose has been rejected.

Guys that tweet is from yesterday night

One post in and you're all getting twitter trolled again

 

[DatsyukianDeke*]

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

 

[JAMmer124]

Wandered over to the Rags board to their MLB thread. They seem to think they'll get TDA, Syndergaard, AND Sanchez for Dickey and Thole and someone else. Yeah ****ing right. They want Gose too. My god....

 

[Bjorn Le]

Reviewing our prospects to see how good they still are made me look at the 2011 draft, which in turn lead me to remember a certain player from that draft drafted by the Cubs. That player is Trevor Gretzky, so I looked his stats up. Seemed to have a good AZL season, ableit he hit with no power. Only 2 extra base hits in 115 AB.

and rule number 3)

no laughing, giggling or joking. no fun will be had in this thread.

Crappy jokes aren't funny, and let's be honest, most of the ones made were crappy.

Gose

But both of them should be really good

 

[Prominence Problem]

I really hope this is true.

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.

 

[p.l.f.]

d'arnaud will be offered as long as dickey gets extended 2 yrs
correct ?

 

[DPyro]

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

Sorry guys

USA today writer apparently.

That said, this tweet is almost a day old, and numerous sources since then have indicated that d'Arnaud would be a centerpiece.

I love Gose but I'd be keeping TDA.

 

[JAMmer124]

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

Gose, only because of how special D'Arnaud could be. There are questions about Gose's bat, especially K's which is an issue for a speed guy. D'Arnaud has the whole package behind the plate. Even if his back/knee doesn't allow him to catch, he would still make a damn good DH/1B IMO.

 

[le_sean]

Hopefully they can make the playoffs after this crazy offseason.

I'm imagining the Blue Jays starting rotation against the Angels bats in the ALCS.

 

[DatsyukianDeke*]

Jays in the playoffs, with a packed Dome would be awesome to experience. Something that the city of Toronto really needs. Hopefully they convince some of the Leaf fans as well, maybe get some of them out to the ballpark as well.

Sorry guys

thank you AA, i knew he wasn't stupid to do this deal straight up, i want a top prospect with dickey, if its giving up TDA

 

[DatsyukianDeke*]

well...

Kind of weird he has less than 10k followers, and barely posts on there. I thought it was just a small town sports guy.
