Huge Three Way Trade by Yankees, Diamondbacks and Tigers

by Tom Dakers on Dec 8, 2009 2:53 PM EST in Toronto Blue Jays News

Yankees get Curtis Granderson.

Diamondbacks et Edwin Jackson and Ian Kennedy.

Tigers get Max Scherzer, Daniel Schlereth, Phil Coke and Austin Jackson.

So I guess we can erase the idea of Jackson coming to us in the Halladay trade.

Is It Just Me...

…or are the Angels looking more and more attractive all the time as a trade partner for Halladay?

I thought I remembered reading somewhere that Roy would not approve a trade to the Angels as he wanted to continue to train in Dunedin region?

He'd veto a trade because of where they train?

So he’d rather go to Pitsburg who trains in Dunedin? (I have no idea where the Pirates train)

That’s been confirmed, unconfirmed, denied, supported, etc. So, outside of Halladay himself, no one really knows. Personally, I kind of doubt it. If Halladay wants to pitch for a contender next year, the most he’d do is agree to the one year and refuse an extension.

Seems like...

the D’backs got the worst of this deal IMHO. Scherzer has a higher ceiling then Jackson and Schlerth/Ian Kennedy are pretty close in value so i don’t see how it made sense from there part.

Biggest news here is the Tigers officially move into rebuild mode so there could be more Tigers on the move namely Miguel Cabrera.
