This has been a really interesting pre-winter meetings. The Jeter bashing, Lee speculation, Dunn, Werth, Jorge de la Rosa, Gonzalez trade, Victor Martinez, Benoit, Beltre to the A's or not....
But, now, the Jays have traded Shaun Marcum, bringing back a well regarded prospect in Brett Lawrie. That means they can put two top-50 prospects, Lawrie and Drabek, on the table for Greinke with a third very nice prospect as well in one of Zach Stewart, Carlos Perez, or JP Arencibia.
It seems more and more likely that Holland and Perez will have to be in the deal for Greinke, and Lee will get a 6th year for the Rangers, if they are going to become Rangers. This is like being on a slow-drip of World Series adrenaline.
Edit: Josh Willingham for Rangers DH!
Edit: Plus Toronto could have upto 8 1st and supplemental 1st round picks. I don't think they'll be shy about selling the farm for Greinke.
