With the deadline coming up, this thread is needed. The Jays could see many faces come and go.
The Phillies are interested in Jose Bautista, according to a report from Bob Elliott of the Toronto Sun.
Philadelphia would move Bautista to third base.
They need to trade will he has value. I honestly can't see Bautista having another season like this. How much do the Phillies have left to give up though?Read more: http://baseball.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/21063/20100729/phillies_interested_in_jose_bautista/#ixzz0v67InqI0
Nice depth move. He'll hit a lot of home runs in Vegas.A day after dealing away the team’s first baseman of the future, Toronto Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos has gone out and made a trade on Friday for another corner infielder.
Unconfirmed reports say the Blue Jays have acquired Mike Jacobs from the New York Mets for a player to be named later.
Jacobs, a 38th-round draft pick of the Mets back in 1999, has also played with the Florida Marlins and Kansas City Royals during a nine-year Major League career. He is 29.
The left-handed bat enjoyed his most productive season in 2008 as a member of the Marlins where he hit 32 home runs with 93 RBIs in 128 games.
This season, Jacobs has toiled primarily for the Mets Triple-A team in Buffalo where he is hitting .321 with 25 home runs with 93 RBIs.
On Thursday, the Blue Jays traded minor-league first baseman Brett Wallace to the Houston Astros in exchange for centre fielder Anthony Gose.
