So what's your point? MLB should avoid cheap, easy,... and clean... ways to scout talent from other countries all in one place and time? Not sure if serious.
I approve this rumour. The Jays staff right now has 4 set starters without Drabek; if they went Greinke-Morrow-Marcum-Romero-Cecil they'd be very happy.
& yes, only New York, LA, Mexico City, & Houston are larger markets than Toronto on the entire continent.
- Adam Lind is the DH, he's a liability at 1B & his range in the outfield is below par... + he wants to concentrate on improving his hitting for 2011, without knowing where he'll be playing on gameday - Manny would clog up the lineup, one being built by AA to run & produce as much as hitting HRs... the Jays' young pitching staff cannot afford holes in the batting lineup - The team came together after Halladay left, they do not need an outsider like Manny being Manny to poison the clubhouse.
Unless he agrees to being a 4th outfielder/part time DH, I do not see that happening.
The Yankees don't deserve Girardi. He has to rely on A-Rod to produce in the post-season, Joba who's a AAA reliever at best, AJ Burnout, a $10million a year over the hill shortstop, & a starting catcher who can't throw guys out. Of course he should NOT lighten up, that team is headed for disaster.

How about-
Tom Brady
Peyton Manning
Kobe Bryant
Tim Duncan
Nick Lidstrum
Martin Brodeur
Chase Utley
Albert Pujols
EXCEPT Jeter is the only 'spritiual champion' who does NOT have numbers even remotely comparable to those peers to back his money up.
As a Blue Jays fan I hope they DO sign him until he's 41 paying 15mil a year so they crash & burn for another 20yrs
& Jeter at 3rd? Yikes, not good to have a corner guy barely able to hit 15hrs, fewer with age.
Obama is Hawaiian as much as he is from Chicagoland.
