How could the Blue Jays get Gary LaVelle so cheaply?  Simple, the
guy's 36 years old (or thereabouts).  They gave up Jim Gott, a young
guy with a lot of talent and also those minor leaguers.  I'm not
so sure if that is a cheap rate or not.  The trade helps the Jays
now, but what about three years down the road when LaVelle is done and
the Giants have all those players right in the prime of their careers?
