Let's see what happens. Although we all really like him, the Jays have made comments about lukewarm interest. We can hope that AA opens the purse strings. :pray:

This probably belongs on the Yankees board.

Well, if the Jays sign a significant free agent this off-season, Darvish is the only real possibility given the circumstances around him (i.e. potential to generate money via Japan, etc). Highly doubt it though. I was much more optimistic about the Jays being interested in him two months ago. I'm not seeing it now. He'll probably end up in New York or Texas.

I hope we at least make a strong bid.

Because of the process, and the teams they are up against, I can't blame them if they don't have the winning bid, but if he gets posted for less than $50 million, I'll be disappointed.

Do want.

I hope the Jays make a strong bid as well. Darvish is the only "major" FA I thought the Jays would target. We definitely aren't getting Fielder/Reyes/Pujols.

Reyes looks like he'd going to the Marlins for 6yr/$111m, which is a little less than I thought it would take

I have a feeling this guy is not going to be worth 100+ mil.
