Lunatic:
^i'm cool with that 2..as long as we don't let him walk for nothing lol
Mo Z. Dizzle:
lol I hope not.
on a side-note, I was reading how the Jays rejected a trade offer from the Giants two years ago where we would've gotten Lincecum for Rios.....that came back to bite us in the ass lol.
what a rotation that would've been with Lincy and Doc; it would've made the best 1-2 punch.
Mo Z. Dizzle:
well, it looks like we did let him get claimed for nothing.
Blue Jays OF Rios claimed by White Sox
NEW YORK (AP)—Blue Jays outfielder Alex Rios(notes) has been claimed off waivers by the Chicago White Sox, sending him to a contending team and giving Toronto financial flexibility.
Blue Jays general manager J.P. Ricciardi announced the move Monday night, about 30 minutes before the Blue Jays were scheduled to play the New York Yankees. Rios was in the initial starting lineup when he learned the news.
Toronto did not receive any compensation for the two-time All-Star, who is batting .264 with 14 homers and 62 RBIs in 108 games.
The 28-year-old Rios signed a seven-year contract with the Blue Jays in April 2008 that guarantees him $69,835,000.
Chicago began the night three games back of the Detroit Tigers in the AL Central.

Rios has a ways to go, he's had promising looking seasons.
maybe a change of location is what he needs.
