Hear from the horses mouth...probably would be a more hard hitting interview if
Bobcat wasn't on yet another vacation.

They brought in ultimate Jays apologist Mike Wilner for the interview

AA rifling off excuses like a machine.

I wish one of the guys in the studio would just cut in and say, "Alex, you couldn't even get a reliever?"

How are we supposed to believe he couldn't add without "subtracting from the big league team" when we saw guys like Gerardo Parra traded for zilch?

Beeston's arm is so far up AA's ***. More with less boys, more with less.

Well he says the money is absolutely there for a waiver pickup/deal. I'll believe it when I see it.

To be fair, if the asking price for marginal upgrades were guys like Pompey and Norris, I would have said no, too.
Nick Nurse recounting his first meeting with Kawhi:
“We could have gone forever. (Raptors management) kept knocking on the door and I was like, ‘A couple more minutes.’ Because we were really into it."

Sure they were. Just like the Diamondbacks were asking for that from the Yankees.
