Buzz: Jays will Likely Keep AJ Burnett

by Matthew Cerrone on December 5th, 2007 at 2:26 pm

In an update to ESPN.com, Jayson Stark says that the Giants continue to balk at trading RHP Tim Lincecum to the Blue Jays for OF Alex Rios.

According to Stark, the Jays are trying to ‘stockpile as many power arms as possible,’ meaning there is ‘little chance’ that they’d trade RHP A.J. Burnett to the Mets, even ‘for a hot young outfield prospect like Carlos Gomez.’

…first off, who in baseball isn’t trying to stockpile as many power arms as possible…i mean, i hope it’s not just the Blue Jays…second, ‘hot young prospect,’ to describe gomez…very nice
