Even if it was, Luke Scott is an idiot. I believe he also threw banana chips at Felix Pie. What he's done and said just makes him look like a racist southern hick.

BTW, would KW go after Edwin Jackson on just another one year deal (like the Yankees are rumored) if they could unload Floyd for decent prospects? Still...probably not. However, stranger things have happened, and Edwin is clearly comfortable with COOPER. Edited January 13, 2012 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) AA must be cringing to think he'll still have to compete with the Tigers, Angels, Rangers, Red Sox, Yankees and Rays. No matter what he does, seems like an impossible task to overcome, and there's just no way a 3rd/4th or even 2nd place team will generate much excitement amount the TOR fans, who are still in a malaise/hangover from the glory years. Will AA do an Ozzie and head to a team like Seattle, the Pirates, the Royals, etc., where he has a much more realistic shot at the post-season? Definitely not BALT. Dodgers or Mets?

Can't think of another young impact hitter that might be available where the trade would be considered significant. I guess Hanley would meet the criteria, but I can't believe the Marlins would even considering deal him. I could see the Pirates dealing McCutchen if blown away.

By my count if Oakland (or San Jose as it may be...) doesn't have a new stadium by 2016, there's no new AL stadiums to host a game (except Yankee Stadium but that won't work). However, in the NL, there's FIVE new stadiums that haven't hosted yet: Philly, San Diego, Miami (I'd guess they get the '15 game) Washington, and Cincinnati. Baltimore (23 years in '16), Texas (21 years in '16) and Toronto (25 years in '16) held the game the longest ago in the AL. Rogers Centre is boring as s***. They'd need a new stadium before they get another game I'd guess. Same goes with Tampa Bay. There's no chance Tropicana Field gets an All-Star Game ever. (Why do I care so much about this?
