Any guesses who it is?

Beckett as in Josh Beckett? He was traded to the Dodgers.

Yes you're right. I got Beckett and Buckholz mixed up. Thanks for the clarification.

Buckholz?! No chance.

Caged Great · 10-20-2012, 09:56 PM

I'd hope that Lind would be the guy we're sending just to ditch him.

Last year when the Sox's were asking the Jays about Farrell didn't the Jays ask for Buckholz in compensation? Wouldn't surprise me if they were asking for him again.

The Jays send a player to the Red Sox, making you think the Sox player has to be of some value. Hmmmmmm

The Jays have to send a player back to Boston to make the trade legal. Can't trade a player for a manager.

Im told BlueJays are getting an infielder. And no, not Will Middlebrooks.

Appears it might be for an infielder.

jschick88 · 10-20-2012, 10:03 PM

So an infielder and played with Boston this year.

TitovFTW · 10-20-2012, 10:04 PM

Nava? Oh god please be Nava. Also...how weird is it that they no the position but not the player?

Caged Great · 10-20-2012, 10:04 PM

Well, all their other guys suck other than Pedroia so umm... yeah.

Caged Great · 10-20-2012, 10:08 PM

Jose Iglesias makes some sense if it's him.

TitovFTW · 10-20-2012, 10:09 PM

Again..we don't even know who the Jays gave up. I didn't expect much in returns of compensation to begin with, still don't now.

nik- · 10-20-2012, 10:10 PM

That's what I was thinking too. Especially if the Escobar experiment is over. But Iglesias isn't a Major Leaguer really.

Sylvanfan · 10-20-2012, 10:12 PM

Dream on if you think it's Bucholz. He was the Sox best pitcher last year, and his relationship with Farrel is likely why the Sox want him.It might be guy like Ciriaco or Iglesias. Hopefully the Jays dumped Lind on Boston. Although I doubt that.

TitovFTW · 10-20-2012, 10:14 PM

Aviles to Toronto, Lind likely going to Boston it sounds like

I'd be okay with that.

A guy can dream right? The reason I brought his name up was that the guys on the Fan590 were talking about if and when Farrell does go back to Boston what would the compensation be. They suggested Bucholz could be part of the compensation. So I wasn't the only one dreaming!

TitovFTW · 10-20-2012, 10:16 PM

Clay Buckholz had a barely average 2012 season. He really was not that good at all. Not saying the Jays had any chance at him, but he is hardly an ace or someone off limits from being traded.
