if they had acquired Ibanez during last season when they were trying to, they wouldn’tve had to give up picks. In fact, they could have gotten picks when he left, which would’ve been nice. Also, we can play him at DH, so we at least save the benefit of his lousy D. Just a couple of reasons he might be more appealing to the Jays. I do hope we stay far, far away from him on the free agent market.

I thought the quote about how he’s in better shape than many 25 year olds was funny. Surely he is, just not better than a lot of 25-year old professional baseball players.

with Ibanez at DH…
