Yankees, Giants, and Blue Jays were scouting him last night

Wandy to Jays for Travis d'Arnaud and Anthony Gose.  Done.

Maybe throw in Wallace, for irony's sake?

The Jays?  I'd assume that they would just sit still.  Replacing 60% of your starting staff and competing in that division is a tall task.

They needed to see him pitch against an AL team.

Is there any reason that both won't be in Houston's starting lineup Friday night?

Because apparently my hypothetical deals can't be finalized that fast?

Man you really pulled me offsides with that one. I could see Snyder/Castro and Schaefer/Bogusevic suiting up in their OKC gear.

I think that's a little rich. d'Arnaud is their catcher of the future, and Anthopoulos loves him some Anthony Gose. My own guess is that any deal with the Blue Jays would be centered around some of their younger pitching. They've got a full stable of HS arms taken out of the last couple of drafts. That said, from a quick look at the standings, I think there are a few other clubs who'd be willing to part with more for Wandy.

Somewhere, Jon Heyman is carefully crafting a snide comment about how Wandy and/or the Astros suck, and any team would be krazy/stoopid to trade for him.

Well, shit, I'm sure he's also breathing, and has partaken of food and water in the last 24 hours, but I didn't feel the need to mention those either.
