Twitter has all the news tonight.  Per Jordan Bastian the Jays are close to signing John McDonald to a one year $1.5m contract.  Jeff Blair tweets that a baseball guy with another organization said he thinks the Jays are 90% likely to trade Lyle Overbay at the winter meetings.  Finally Bastian twitters that the Jays have called on Yorvit Torrealba multiple times and are expected to make an offer.  Blair guesses that there is a 50% chance that Doc could be an ex-Jay after the winter meetings.

Bastian has posted a blog note about the rumours.

Expect the rumours to pick up next week after US Thanksgiving in advance of the winter meetings.
