beautox Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 The Blue Jays and catcher Gregg Zaun have capped a bizarre 24 hours by agreeing in principle Tuesday on a $7.25-million, two-year contract, according to the Canadian Press. link Damn! If there was one position we have no depth at and i wanted KW to overspend, it was back up catcher. I would've loved to have Zaun locked up for 2 possibly even 3 years. If AJP goes down we have no one. Zaun destroys LHP .373AVG, he also had a 4.34CERA for '06 and 3.79CERA for '05. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackie hayes Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 He's going to be the starter in Toronto, though. Don't think he would have come here to back up AJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The article stated that Ricciardi doesn't want to resign Molina, also that the Barajas deal fell through. So Zaun appears to be it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, supposedly Barajas was a done deal with the Jays since all he had to do was the physical, but he probably got higher offers before the physical so he turned the Jays down looking for more. Riccardi seemed pretty pissed. Not many players left like JD who stands by his word. Edited November 29, 2006 by Whitewashed in '05 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benchwarmerjim Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 they offered Barajas 2 year, $5.25 they got Zaun at 2 year, $7.25 I love Riccardi's quote “Zaunie was our first choice all along” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
