It looks like the Jays aren't getting Carlos Carrasco.
#Indians, though, not inclined to move a starter; would need huge return. #BlueJays made big push for Carrasco. Didn’t get done.

Of course, no one ever sees Alex's moves before they happen so maybe this is just throwing them off the trail. I can understand why they would like Carlos, he is averaging 10.1 strikeouts per 9 innings. I wouldn't mind having him.
I think the Blue Jays will make a trade, but I'm doubting that it will be this weekend. I figure sometime next week. I'll admit to being bored with trade rumors. They are a dime a dozen at this time of year. So few of them actually mean anything. Alex talks to everyone about everyone. That doesn't mean he'll get close to a trade with most.
Why won't we have a contest? Guess the pitcher that Alex trades picks up in trade and the day it happens. I'm thinking Tyson Ross and Wednesday. No fair guessing no trade.
