This proposed Marlins deal confirms all the worst fears of MLB about the Miami strategy, and it effectively crushes the MIA market for MLB.

How do you deal Johnson and Reyes and not get at least 1 of D'Arnaud/Sanchez/Syndergaard in return?
Lol Marlins.

Also I think Jays would be smarter to keep Marisnick.

#Marlins opened season with a payroll of roughly $100MM. After this trade, non-arb 2013 obligations will be ~ $16MM. Historic salary dump. - @jonmorosi

Wow!!
Saw the headline on TSN and as more and more names jumped out at me, the more it looked in favour of the Jays.
What is Miami thinking?

<@Afino> As Expos owner, Jeffrey Loria took away from Canada. Today, as Marlins owner, he gave back

I actually know a few...boy, are they PISSED! I can't decide if they're justified or if their suckers for being pawns in Loria's game all these years.

I'm so confused. Something happened to a Toronto sports team that's... um, remind me what that word is that means "opposite of bad"?
Toronto sports been struggling and lackluster for some time
Good jolt of energy

You just know that he is so pissed right now. Now he's only going to go to 3 games as opposed to his usual 4.

He'll probably get traded later today. Cleveland could use him

Massive deal is in the works, but you would assume MLB is going to take a hard look because of long-term ramifications for MIA market.
Selig to cancel trade due to baseball reasons?

#BlueJays-#Marlins trade not yet official. Source says MLB does not yet have all details.
Even if the CEO nixes the trade this is a huge hit for Marlins
FA just took the rug under the team and sold em all
Can't do that
