    So Headley is looking for a 4 year deal I hear, wonder if the Gnats will go that long on a contract, I know we wouldn't.

    According to Rosenthal, Josh Donaldson has been traded to the Blue Jays in a move that will piss off A's fans even more.

    In return for Josh Donaldson, the A's get Brett Lawrie, SS prospect Franklin Barreto, RHP Kendall Graveman, and Sean Nolin

    You can enjoy him in Toronto blue, just like Russell Martin.

    Toronto going for it I guess! It they sign one of the big name pitchers out there like Lester, Scherzer or Shields, look out.

    I know Donaldson is very good, but I think the A's get the better end of the deal on this one.

    Toronto raped Oakland in that trade smh

    Donaldson could have been had in LA for a a package that all of us would have accepted at this rate. smh.

    Eh Donaldson is a nice player but we still don't have a deep enough farm to trade 4 prospects and the lynch pin in that trade was a young SS and I have to believe it would have taken Corey to do this deal.

    It was actually a good trade for both teams, given what they each wanted. Toronto wanted a shot right now, 2015. Oakland wants to build their future and still field a decent team now, which is why they got Lawrie. But the young shortstop was the key.

    Plus a pitching prospect expected to be in the rotation sooner rather than later.

    With Cruz signing in Seattle, Dodgers picks move up to #25 & 37.
