I don't think the Jays have really ever expressed an interest anyway.benn said:mulder will actually get less and he is probably just looking for a one year or 2 year deal while he recovers from a rotator cuff surgery and his agent is Rod Barajas agent as well so chances of jays landing him now are pretty slim
Good, since I think they have enough injury-plagued starters.
I'd think they're targetting Gil Meche first (cheaper than Lilly), then a middle infielder (but who?) - and that they'll get two of those three. Lilly's going to command a fair bit more than Meche, and if someone makes a huge offer to him, he won't be back. If I had my choice, I'd take Lilly, see what Meche wants to be #4, and take my chances with the middle infield. With the offense from the rest of the lineup, they could afford to go purely defensively there - Hill at second and a pure glove-man at short.
I'd be perfectly happy signing Meche and Lilly and leaving it at that (except for a paltry few sheckels to sign a defensive shortstop in a trade - Clayton? Callaspo? Andino?).
