The great draft debate: Jose Reyes vs. Jean Segura as youth takes on experience in the middle infield
For a number of years we’ve been discussing the fact that the top of the shortstop ranks was fraught with risk and concerns with injury.

But after a breakout season at age 29, fantasy owners bought in almost immediately. As the following...

Dickey, he convinced the Cy Young Award winner over dinner to accept a trade to Toronto, and an extension, based on the team’s willingness to do what was necessary to win a championship over the course of the contract.
But what does Dickey think now, after...

2014 MLB Preview: Toronto Blue Jays
Last year, the Toronto Blue Jays had high hopes heading into the season after the addition of several all-stars like Jose Reyes, R.A. Dickey and Melky Cabrera.

Better days ahead for the Toronto Blue Jays in 2014
The Toronto Blue Jays arguably experienced one of their most disappointing seasons in franchise history last season. It was much deeper than the 74-88 record the Jays finished with; a season in which they were forecasted to dominate the baseball world. The Jays mortgaged the farm system to put a product on the field capable of contending immediately in 2013. However, the season...
