Olney is reporting that Josh Johnson, Beurle, Reyes, Bonafacio, and Buck are all going to the Jays... holy CRAP

My wife was a good friend of Buerhle's sister in middle and high school. I thought she was just exaggerating and then she pulled out pictures of her an Mark that she had stashed away somewhere.

I will be surprised if MLB approves the trade. I'm not sure if they can stop it but if they can, Bud Selig might.

It's the dumbest trade ever. All of those guys basically for Yunel Escobar. The Marlins ownership is horrendous!!
