WINNERS AND LOSERS SO FAR IN THE 2016 AFL TRADE PERIODWINNERS* West Coast: The Eagles pulled off an absolute steal, gaining four-time premiership star Sam Mitchell from Hawthorn in exchange for pick 88 and a swap of late picks. The shock trade - designed to create much-needed space in the Hawks salary cap - will provide an immediate boost to the Eagles midfield but also paves the way for 34-year-old Mitchell to eventually serve as an assistant coach under good mate Adam Simpson. His leadership and footy smarts will be invaluable for rising Eagles midfielders Dom Sheed and Liam Duggan.* Fremantle.:A long overdue list rebuild looks to be going well so far. The Dockers would be stoked with the generous No.23 compensation pick they received for trading free agent Chris Mayne to Collingwood. Fremantle went on to use the selection on classy Hawthorn winger Brad Hill, who will be reunited with brother Stephen. They also secured long-time forward target Cam McCarthy from Greater Western Sydney and could boost their key position stocks further, with Western Bulldogs defenders Marcus Adams and Joel Hamling a chance to return to WA.* St Kilda: Jack Steele and Koby Stevens arent huge names but theyll add depth to the Saints midfield and offer handy support to stars Jack Steven and David Armitage. Importantly, the Saints wont have to give up much. Steele was traded from Greater Western Sydney in exchange for a future second-round selection, while Stevens is out of contract at the Western Bulldogs and looks likely to depart for a late pick. West Coast free agent Mitch Brown could potentially add to their key defensive stocks.LOSERS* Hawthorn: Securing Sydneys Tom Mitchell is undoubtedly a plus, and they could yet secure Gold Coast gun Jaeger OMeara. But at what cost? Coach Alistair Clarksons decision to nudge four-time premiership star Sam Mitchell out the door was shocking enough for Hawks fans. Then it emerged he had made similar overtures to another loyal servant in Jordan Lewis. The Hawks have declared Lewis a required player but a trade to Melbourne cant be ruled out. Supporters will have high expectations for OMeara who hasnt played in the AFL since 2014.* Collingwood: On the face of it, the Magpies have ticked the boxes after securing free agent trade targets Chris Mayne from Fremantle and North Melbournes Daniel Wells. But they didnt come cheap. Wells is reported to have been offered $1.8 milion over three years, while Mayne signed a four-year deal worth close to $2 million despite signs his best football is behind him. Retired Collingwood star Dane Swan questioned why the Magpies would recruit 31-year-old Wells when they have let go several older players.* Port Adelaide. The Power are another team desperately looking to clear space in their salary cap so they can rebuild their list after missing the finals for a second-straight year. Vice-captain Hamish Hartlett is one of about a dozen players understood to have been put up as trade bait despite being only one year into a five-year contract. With coach Ken Hinkley speaking of the need for bold list management decisions, ending the trade period without substantial changes would be disastrous for Port. Tyreek Hill Super Bowl Jersey .ca. Kerry, Just watched the shootout in the Coyotes/Leafs game and I have to ask, why was the James van Riemsdyk goal allowed to count? All of the video replays we were shown on TV were inconclusive about whether the puck had entirely crossed the line or not. Frank Clark Super Bowl Jersey . The Oilers come in having lost five in a row (0-4-1) and 16 of their last 20 games, dropping a 2-1 decision to the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday. http://www.officialkcchiefspro.com/Darron-lee-chiefs-jersey/ . Halladay signed a one-day contract with the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday that allowed the veteran right-hander to retire as a member of team with which he broke into the majors and spent the bulk of his distinguished 16-year career. Christian Okoye Super Bowl Jersey . Wilson hit Schenn from behind during Tuesday nights game in Philadelphia, earning a five-minute major for charging and a game misconduct. He has a phone hearing with the department of player safety, which limits any potential suspension to five or fewer games. Morris Claiborne Super Bowl Jersey . - Levi Browns tenure at left tackle for the Pittsburgh Steelers is over before it even began. ANAHEIM, Calif. -- The Toronto Blue Jays have remained in the thick of the AL playoff race despite a dismal start to September.Thanks to some familiar big bats and a well-rested knuckleballer, the Jays are finally gathering a bit of momentum for the pennant race.Troy Tulowitzki hit a two-run homer, R.A. Dickey pitched scoreless ball into the sixth inning and Toronto stayed atop the AL wild-card chase with a 5-0 victory over the freefalling Los Angeles Angels on Friday night.Edwin Encarnacion added a late two-run homer for the Blue Jays (81-66), who stayed even with Baltimore for the leagues two wild cards. Both teams trail Boston by two games for the AL East lead with 15 to play.We look at it, of course, Dickey said. Thats part of a postseason run. Youre competing against teams in your division that are good. We know what we need to do to get where we want to get.Toronto has lost seven of 11 overall, but took the first two games of a weekend series with the Angels, who have lost five straight and nine of 10. The Blue Jays have won consecutive games for the first time in September.Hopefully, maybe this is the start of a little roll, Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. It would be good timing if it was.Dickey (10-14) bolstered his case to keep a rotation spot by limiting the Angels to seven hits and striking out five. His first start since Sept. 5 began with a rough first inning before he settled in.Its not ideal to pitch once every 10 days, especially for a knuckleball pitcher, Dickey said. It was a little bit of a challenge to find the release point and the grip. Once I got that, it was easier.The Angels chased Dickey and loaded the bases with nobody out in the sixth, but failed to score against Joe Biagini when Kaleb Cowart flied out to end the inning. Cowart also struck out to end the eighth, stranding two more Angels.Roberto Osuna got four outs for his 33rd save.EDWINS EDGEEncarnacions homer in the ninth inning was his 40th, boosting his AL-leading RBI total to a career-high 118. Hee joined Jose Bautista and Carlos Delgado as the only Blue Jays with multiple 40-homer seasons.dddddddddddd.Its a nice number to reach, Encarnacion said. Im really happy to be part of that group. Those two guys are big horses.WEAVE DOWNJered Weaver (11-12) matched his career high for losses despite throwing six mostly sharp innings of seven-hit ball for Los Angeles, striking out four.My fastball command was really good all night, Weaver said. Its the best its been in a while. I was able to locate down and in all night. Just one stupid pitch, and thats the difference in the game.Tulowitzki connected in the fourth inning on that pitch from his fellow product of nearby Long Beach States prolific baseball program. The homer, Tulowitzkis second in September, was the 36th allowed by the slow-throwing Weaver this season, one shy of James Shields for most in the majors.ALBERTS 600THAlbert Pujols became the 16th player in big league history to get 600 career doubles with a drive into the left-field corner in the first inning. Pujols joined Barry Bonds and Hank Aaron as the only players with at least 575 homers and 600 doubles.FAN INJUREDA fan behind the Angels dugout was injured when Carlos Perezs bat went flying into the crowd as he swung and missed at a third strike in the second inning. Medical personnel spent several minutes attending to the fan, who was escorted from her seat with an injury on the right side of her head.TRAINERS ROOMBlue Jays: Josh Donaldson was the designated hitter for the second straight game as he returns deliberately from a hip injury. Darwin Barney played third.UP NEXTBlue Jays: Francisco Liriano (7-12, 5.16 ERA) limited Tampa Bay to three hits and two runs in his last start.Angels: Ricky Nolasco (5-14, 4.94) has just one win since joining Los Angeles, but it was a shutout at Angel Stadium. He has never beaten Toronto in four career starts. ' ' '
