Jays Close To Signing Pierzynski (Update: didn't happen!)

stupid cowley, he's the poopsworld of mlb for me

[CapeCrusader]

Glad this didn't happen. We don't need a catcher.

[Hoopstarr]

This is the last time I get worked up about something Cowley says...until next time.

AA as been playing a good game of poker since he's got here. This was probably just one of bluffs, to see how others valued AJ.

Also, i was hoping that Olivo agreed to arbitration, and Frasor didn't. Anyone else with me on this?

[jim todd]

didn't happen? hallelujah!

[ItsDanger]

Agents get media to give out fake rumours all the time to pressure GMs.

Have said for weeks I had a feeling JP Arencibia isn't in the Jays plans and will be used as trade bait. Looking more and more like the case if this is true. I'm all for Olivo however.

OMG- what the frig would we want AJP for? I would have been scratching my head for a long time had this happened.

I wouldn't mind taking a chance at Russell Martin- that falls in line with the high-upside potential signings and trades AA has done so far. When healthy, he has a great bat and can throw guys out on the base paths. Oh, and he's Canadian, eh.
