The Blue Jays still need to add to their bullpen. We can't rely on people like Schultz, or Loup, who deserves to be where he is in Buffalo.

Well, hopefully he'll be well enough to lead to you to the 2016 WS~Cain's nowhere close to being dead. He just isn't used to actually having a larger range of motion so his release point has been completely inconsistent. He'll be fine next season for sure, just a question on if he can get his mechanics fixed in time this year.

Source: Trade official. Utley and $4M to #Dodgers. IF/OF Darnell Sweeney and RHP John Richy to #Phillies. Sweeney was at AAA, Richy at Hi A.

Man if the O's catch the Blue Jays and Toronto doesn't make the playoffs that would make my year lmao.
The prospects the Dodgers gave up for Utley look pretty solid. Sweeney's had a decent year in AAA and True Blue LA had him as our 14th best prospect (6th best hitter) coming into the season. Richy was a 3rd round pick in 2014 and has gone 10-5 with a very good K/BB ratio in High A this year. What a stupid ass trade.
Looks like Sweeney got an immediate call up to replace Utley. Ugh.
It'd be a bloodbath in October.
Mind you, there's a lot of uncertainty around AA even if the Jays do make the post season. Certainly the new president would want his own guy as GM?

from everything I've been hearing lately it sounds like AA is probably going to be promoted to a president of baseball ops role, while they hire a president of business ops to complement him.
btw I don't think them missing the post season would lead to a bloodbath. regardless of what happens results-wise, these last couple months of the season will have been very profitable for Rogers

Sports Illustrated said:“Who would you rather have playing shortstop this year than me?” Jeter asked Cashman.
“Do you really want me to answer that?” Cashman replied. Jeter told him to go ahead, and he listed Tulowitzki, then the Rockies’ shortstop who was in the midst of his first All-Star campaign. “We’re not paying extra money for popularity,” he added, “We’re paying for performance.”
Bob Nightingale @BNightengale: Kevin Towers' name also is picking up steam if the #Mariners make a change. He has worked with most of their front office staff in SD/Pitt
