I wonder how many home runs Giancarlo Stanton would have hit last year if he wasn't playing half of his games in that cavernous hitter's nightmare.

Safe guess is ones that were picked or acquired by CLE by the current Jays president and GM back when, likely also that they’ve gone nowhere in the past few seasons toiling in aa ball...but will talk him up as if they’re a few adjustments away from being blue chippers 4 years later.

Probably going to be pitchers who are in AA or AAA and who have warts, like Paulino and Perez (who, along with Giles, we got for Osuna)

I know I've been hard on their management lately, but there's just something that really bothers me with any sport when guys go to their comfort zone of their former teams. The haul remains to be seen but it gives me the fits when above the odds they seem to go to their old clubs for people they know rather than working their scouting department to look at other teams' prospects whom they may not be familiar with. We'll see, but it doesn't smell too good.

How many people are there right now? Looks like a few hundred. I know it's more, but it is really, really empty.

lol c'mon Giles you dumbass
The bleeder sawed off single a guy can live with.
A 4 pitch walk without even coming close to the strike zone is embarrassing.

Oh I would bet, its simply a matter of Cleveland offered the best return
Sounds like 5 teams were interested, unfortunately the trade should have been made in the off season
(Edit Jays should of traded him last season)

Granderson is going to the Brewers.
edit: apparently for a Class A prospect.

Glad Granderson got dealt.
Happy for him to get to go to a team with a chance at the post season, and now hopefully we can call up another OFer and get him some AB's. Too bad Alford has had such a ####ty year. Maybe we get one more look at Pompey?

OFFICIAL: We've acquired Minor League OF Demi Orimoloye from the
@Brewers in exchange for OF Curtis Granderson.
Jays get a Canadian kid back.
