Not the #1 option, but still an improvement and I can't complain about that.

You don't think the PED in his veins will cause him to try and over-perform?



But in all seriousness, I do like signings like these only on the aspect that it gets players turned on to join the Blue Jays (Since better club)


But deep down, it does not make me horny or turn me on.

AA would not surrender a draft pick for Upton. Bourn would be interesting. I think Ross stays in Boston though.

Ross wants 3 years/25 million..almost the same exact price that Melky got. Plus his splits are disgusting why would you want him?

Melky's been tested in the ALEast had three good seasons with the Yanks and only got better (with or without roids) in the later years.
Its not a huge or lengthy contract so not a huge financial issue
Switch hitter who steal bases just completes what the Jays need in the LF

When Melky regresses, he'll like to thank the 'fangs' for 'all de moneys'

Here are projections by Bill James on him:
