"Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com reports that the Blue Jays have acquired Jose Reyes, Josh Johnson, Mark Buerhle, Emilio Bonifacio and John Buck from the Marlins in exchange for Yunel Escobar, Adeiny Hechavarria, Henderson Alvarez, Jake Marisnick and Justin Nicolino."
As far as I can tell, that's Hechavarria and Marisinick for good players that make money, albeit a few question marks (JJ's health for one). As a Jays fan, I'm loving this. Screw Esobar and screw Alvarez. Although...as a JJ owner I do feel a little sad on the inside. And as a Stanton owner I now feel dead on the inside lol

Wow, monster deal indeed. Glad to see AA finally grow a pair and take a risk. Jays are giving up a lot but the return could well be worth it. Reyes can be an all star SS and finally getting some quality starting pitching.
They are giving up a ton. To be honest I am shocked they gave up both Hech and Escobar. I would have rather seen then send JPA and open the spot for d'Arnaud and keep Hech. Nicolino is one of their top young arms (I drafted him last year in my keeper so I am familiar with him.). Maybe the fact they haven't moved a catcher means AA isn't done yet. If Reyes can return to form and Johnson can find his health, this could be a very good deal for the jays. Buerle is consistent and should bring some stability to the rotation.

I've always been a fan of Mark Buerhle's. Crafty vet, not to mention throws a lefty into our rotation and as mentioned is consistent. We got to see his stuff close up as he tended to do very well against us haha.

I love this deal, I don't believe in Romero - and the Jays should act accordingly. And it looks like they are. Count on Romero as a No.4 and act accordingly.
So you have: Morrow Buerhle Johnson Romero Happ Drabek/Hutch*if and when one or both return I like that situation. Plus an upgrade at SS, for prospects that they have been hoarding. MUCH better

Not to mention, we finally have a legitimate leadoff man!?
Wonder what's gonna happen at the catcher position, big logjam there now especially after signing Mathis to his extension. Another deal is forthcoming for sure. Come on AA go out and sign Shawn Marcum just cuz you can.
