Poll: Would you want the Blue Jays to go after Yu Darvish?
There is a great debate going on in the Yu Darvish Fanshot about if he would
be worth the money that it would cost to get him. It is really enjoyable to
see the different opinions, but I thought that a poll would be interesting.
Now I don't know what it would take to land him, with DiceK the Red Sox went
nuts and over bid everyone by a long shot. Maybe they will do it again. There
are a lot of deep pocket teams out there, then the Jays have pretty deep
pockets too.
I'm going to use a $55 million posting cost and a 6 year, $15 million
contract for the poll. I could be off on both but that adds up to $145
million, that's likely in the ball park.
For me? I haven't seen him pitch and, more importantly, playing in Japan, he
doesn't have stats that I can easily quantify, so that would be too much
money for me. To spend that much I'd like to be more sure of what I'm
getting. He looks like a better pitcher than DiceK, but you won't know until
he is here. Then if Alex and his scout said that he was worth that much, I
really couldn't argue.
There would be benefits, outside of his play on the field. He'd bring us a
lot of notice from Japan. I'm sure they would want his starts shown on TV
over there. Toronto would gain some in tourism as well as the team picking up
some extra ticket sales with folks coming from over there to watch. So the
team would gain back some of that money. And, if he turned out to be great
and led us to the World Series, he'd be worth every penny.

这篇主要讨论蓝鸟是否有必要竞逐达比修有？
他符合高价价码吗？红袜当年曾经为松坂付出天价，这次也许会再这么做，蓝鸟已有本钱
参与竞标。
作者提到他没看过达比修投球，他目前的一切成绩都是在日职的表现，看起来达尔似乎比
松坂优质？但无法确定，除法他真正踏上大联盟土地投球，达比修真的值这么多钱吗？我
不敢说。
当然，他还是会来其他周边效益，比方日本的高度关注，很多人期待透过电视看到他在大
联盟投球，多伦多主场有机会吸引日本球迷的莅临，球队也将受益。假如，他能带领蓝鸟
队打进世界大赛，那么他值得这个高价价码。
