Im a Jays fan so obviously i love this trade. The Jays get great talent right now but the Marlins are getting some of the Jays top prospects.
BUT right now Bud Selig is apparently "reviewing" the trade and has yet to give it his OK. Besides the amount of players(12) plus $4million going to the Jays, i dont see why it is taking so long to get this approved. There is some talk that Selig may veto it because the fans in Miami are so upset and apparently some GM's dont like it either.
Its a fair trade to both teams(depending how u look at it). No f'in way this should get blocked!! Its not much different than the Red Sox/Dodgers trade
this makes the Jays a legit contender again in baseballs toughest division
GO JAYS
