The Toronto Blue Jays made a deal to bring all-star shortstop Troy Tulowitzki and LaTroy Hawkins from the Colorado Rockies for Jose Reyes and minor leaguers.
Here’s how Twitter responded:
Deal as we know it right now: Tulo and LaTroy Hawkins to #BlueJays for Jose Reyes and minor leaguers. Do not know financial terms, if any.

Daniel Norris is *not* in the trade, source says. #BlueJays #Rockies

Miguel Castro likely going to #Rockies in the Tulowitzki blockbuster, source says. #BlueJays

Murmurs are Jeff Hoffman going, not Daniel Norris. Was going to be one of the two. https://t.co/xikaF2Digc

AA takes on massive deal with 5+ yrs left on it, guaranteeing Tulo a full no-trade clause in the process. Breaking all the rules. #BlueJays

Can you say blockbuster? Troy Tulowitzki is on his way to Toronto as @BlueJays bolster their already dynamic offense. pic.twitter.com/CEjlIxBYqy

I'm guessing #BlueJays run differential skyrockets to +300??? #Jays #Rockies

If I've said it once, I've said it a million times, AA never ceases to surprise me. After a deal like this, I can't imagine he's done yet

That's the 3rd 2015 All-Star that Jays GM Alex Anthopoulos has landed in the last 9 months. (Martin, Donaldson, and now Tulowitzki)

Jose Reyes just confirmed to me he's on the move.

Troy Tulowitzki is the best shortstop in baseball. #Bluejays are seriously throwing down here. Expect Jose Reyes going the other way. #Jays
— Mike Wilner (@Wilnerness590) July 28, 2015
I'm a big fan of Jose Reyes, for sure, but Tulowitzki is conservatively 100x better. #Bluejays #Jays
— Mike Wilner (@Wilnerness590) July 28, 2015
I'm going to miss @lamelaza_7. Most exciting @BlueJays to watch since @Robbiealomar & always a class act to deal with.

My favorite Jose Reyes memory from his time with the Blue Jays: https://t.co/4fmvTpxSkB

A bit overlooked by some is the fact Hawkins upgrades the #bluejays bullpen.
