Downs will get Arbritation for sure.
i disagree. I think a struggling rookie would have made deals for the sake of making deals. i think AA came off as more of a vet that understood that he had options that allowed him to have high prices. It would make more sense if he had high asking prices, and no options but he doesn't.

I think they will offer arbitration to Buck. Buck has already said he has no interest in being in a platoon situation and I think the jays want JPa to be in the majors next year and play alot. So i don't think buck would have interest in staying in Toronto next season so he's not a big risk for arbitration.
I agree that overbay and Frasor are not good aribrtation candidates, but i'm still not rulling out Overbay being traded and I dont think we knew the price on Frasor. i have a ahrd time beliving there is a team out there willing to give up even an average prospect for frasor.
