Actually weird note of interest, talked to a coach with the baseball academy in my hometown today, he just got out here today from Ontario and said he has spoken numerous times with Anthopolous. Noted to me A.A. has told him next year is the year he expects the Jays to actually make some noise, not just in the AL East, but in all of baseball. Said A.A. told him they are aiming at acquiring an ace of the staff and a big bat in the middle of the lineup.

Does anyone have an idea of potential bats (outside of Pujols and Fielder) and "ace" quality pitching available this winter?

EDIT - he did just say acquiring, so it could be via trade as well.
