Rosenthal: Jays still pursuing Gavin Floyd

[Deron05]

I would love to see him in a jays Uniform, but at the right price. Maybe like David Cooper and Marcus Knecht.

Then they will put the phone on mute and yell "HEY EVERYBODY. THEY JUST OFFERED US COOPER AND KNECHT FOR FLOYD AHHAHAH"

Cooper is a C prospect and so is Knecht (according to John Sickels). Why would they take two C prospects?

I think people are undervaluing what a 200 inning pitcher costs. This is why anybody who really likes the team understands why we don't convert prospects for MLB ready talent, it's simply because you pay 125% of what they are worth.

for us to steal santos for molina, it has left a bad taste in chicago front office and fans' mouthes. i think getting floyd will cost us our top pitching prospect this time, and that means syndergaard, which in this case stay far far away from that deal. syndergaard is a serious prospect with front of rotation stuff, not a bottom inning eater like floyd.

as everyone say, in AL East, you need pitchers that make ppl miss bats. balls in play is a nightmare when you have the best hitters with patient approaches that can get on base by hit or walks. syndergaard is a strikeout pitcher and we need to keep him.

I would give up Cecil and something Else. If the jays do get Floyd, there's no spots left, so getting rid of cecil makes sense, that is if he doesn't regain his velocity.
