If Rosenthal is right, AA may have to work his magic with a 3 team deal to get it done. I'm not even going to guess at that one, but it sounds as if it's going to take more than Thames to pry him loose. I guess Prado would be plan B after all the avenues have been explored with Johnson.

Even it the rumor is true, it's likely that Fielder has no intention of signing with Toronto. AA has admitted as well that if he hears about a deal going down, he will make a phone call just to toss a monkey wrench into the works and increase the bidding for someone he isn't interested in. After all, the more money other teams spend on players he isn't interested in, the less they have to spend on players that are on his radar. It's a game played by both sides, and the Jays could actually be willing participants in order to bid up Fielder's price.
