Delgado

This year?? I don't know how much I buy that.

They might even end up trading Hinske. The guy obviously had a sub-par year the past few years and he needs to wake up. The Jay's with Delgado's contract finished can now pursue some more free agents but they still cannot compete with the bigger names like Boston and the Yankees.

Anyone can get lucky. But, yes, that's what it would be - getting lucky.

Man there's been a flurry of baseball activity and I like it...3 potential busts:

Jaret Wright - one good year since 97
Carl Pavano - perhaps played over his head this season
Adrian Beltre - basically a combo of the first 2

I feel bad for Kent now, he has no protection on the Dodgers now...so will Delgado end up with the Mets or Orioles?
and where does Beltran go??

Pavano has always had good stuff, he's been hurt and had a little bad luck. He pitched well in the playoffs and WS for the Marlins last year. He's just not proven himself as an AL pitcher. Afterall, the Cardinals were supposed to having good pitching and they got hammered by Boston. Pavano might be worth what he signed for in the NL but we'll see if he deserves that money in the AL.
Jaret Wright is a big gamble. Sometimes guys just have one good year and then they're done.
Rumor out of Boston was that the Sox were trying to get rid of Millar and Mienkewitcz and then sign Delgado, but now they need pitching bad so thats probably not gonna happen...

Matt Clement signs...

...with the Red Sox. Who do the Jays go after next (and then say that's who they wanted all along)?
