runningback33 Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 (edited) https://www.tsn.ca/mlb/toronto-blue-jays-trade-catcher-danny-jansen-to-boston-red-sox-1.2154573 TORONTO — The Toronto Blue Jays traded catcher Danny Jansen to the Boston Red Sox for three prospects on Saturday. Jansen had played his entire MLB career in Toronto and was the longest-serving Blue Jay on the roster, making his debut with the club on Aug. 13, 2018. The 29-year-old has six home runs, 18 RBIs and a .212 batting average this season. In return, Toronto received infielder Cutter Coffey, infielder Eddinson Paulino and right-handed pitcher Gilberto Batista. The Blue Jays have been active with Tuesday's MLB trade deadline approaching. Edited July 28 by runningback33 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, hopefully when they start moving bigger names out, they get some prospects in the top 100. The Jansen trade return was severely underwhelming for me. This season has been a dismal failure. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not an awful return, considering Jansen is a 2 month rental and we got their #15 prospect and a recent 2nd rounder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their #15 in any given organization translates to a 400-500th overall prospect. All bets are off after the top 100 prospects in the mlb. After 200 overall it becomes very unlikely in the MLB that they’ll ever be an everyday player. I would have liked to see a #6-10 prospect coming back as they have a shot of maybe being a full time MLB player…. Could go either way and I think it’s fair for a rental of Jansen’s caliber. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurn Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 Days like this is when I miss "Rocket' Rod Beaton, from the old Dan Russel Sportstalk show. Before computers and apps, this guy knew almost every player, which hand, where they played, and how good they were. He'd be able to break down all this stuff into 3 minutes that made sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 They're probably getting about what you'd expect for these players, but what I find frustrating is I have no faith in this organization continuing their development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope I don't either. For example Nate Pearson was ranked ahead of Bobby Whitt Jr just a couple years ago. Today he was just traded for scraps. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a better chance of seeing the trade returns at Nat Bailey. I don't know why this team is being run into the ground so badly. Maybe they want to sell the team?

That's what happens when management says they're only trading expiring contracts. You won't get much of a return for 2 months availability. Further to you point though, I get what the Jays are doing here....basically acquiring as many pieces as possible, but underwhelming doesn't do some of them justice. I forget which deal it was (Jansen, I think) but one of the guys we got back was hitting a buck $.67 in A ball. I had to double check to make sure I was seeing it right.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurn Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Game one of the Jay's double header starts at 12:05 Pacific-with game 2 at 3:35. I don't know if these are full games or those 7 inning travesties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
