o.t. Jays ship Marcum, could Greinke be in the works? 

Post#1 » by Dr. Detfink » Mon Dec 6, 2010 9:48 pm

Two trades in recently between the Jays & Brewers (another cry me a river franchise cause Yankees spend money)...

Shockingly it didn't involve Prince Fielder but Lawrie, one of their top prospects for Marcum who at times gave the Yankee fits when the team was going through the motions...

One wonders if this isn't part of a bigger picture to meet the Royals' demands for Zach Greinke. After Cliff Lee, it's expected that Greinke sweepstakes would heat up. Texas and Toronto being among those interested...

But let's suppose Toronto hard after Greinke....is he worth it? One way or another, the Maple Jays will have to give up a lot...

Here's the thing though, wouldn't a guy like Marcum be worth so much more to the Royals than a AA OFer? I'm not sure what Marcum's arbitration schedule is like but he he is easily capable of pitching a team to 14-15 wins. I don't know if I buy that this is to setup a Grienke deal. -Jitpal

Kid Lawrie is a real nice player, nice power. BUT, his sister is probably 10x the player and is FAP FAP FAP FAP hot. :love: :love: :droop: :droop:
