Slam! - What's in store for Blue Jays catcher J.P. Arencibia?
Though everyone seems to be oohing and awing over Mark Buehrle, Josh Johnson, Jose Reyes and Emilio Bonifacio, and with good reason, the conversation has thus far glanced over the importance of the Blue Jays' new (old) catcher, and what that means for J.P. Arencibia, who crouched behind the plate for 102 games for Toronto last season.
In the immediate aftermath of the mega-deal, one has to ask: With Buck in the picture, and with the ever-so-talented Travis d'Arnaud waiting in the wings, is J.P. Arencibia's job secure?

Am I wrong in thinking Arencibia is a younger John Buck?2. Rants Mulliniks Posted: November 15, 2012 at 11:18 AM (#4303275)
Nope, Arencibia just got done his second year, Buck has been around since 2004.3. Crispix reaches boiling point with lackluster play Posted: November 15, 2012 at 11:45 AM (#4303302)
Edit: I didn't realize how bad he sucked with the Marlins - .213/.308/.358 over the last two years.
The important thing here is that John Buck is the only catcher still active (I think) who's allowed to wear masks with crazy crap painted on them like goaltenders do. It would be a shame if he was relegated to benchwarming now that he is in Canada again.4. Hit by Pitch Posted: November 15, 2012 at 12:06 PM (#4303324)
With the market for catchers as thin as it is this off season they may be able to trade buck instead of Arencibia.5. Matthew E Posted: November 15, 2012 at 12:13 PM (#4303331)
If it's me I trade Buck for whatever I can get for him. I don't think he can play any more. The Jays will be fine with Arencibia and Wilson, with d'Arnaud looming over them both like an allegory of death.6. BDC Posted: November 15, 2012 at 12:39 PM (#4303341)
I was trying to figure out why I thought Arencibia was a star. Then I looked up his record in Arlington: 5 HR and 7 RBI in 8 games (his OPS is 1.023 in Arlington, highest of any park he's played in). I am massively influenced by watching players play live (I rarely see baseball in any other form).7. Hey Gurl Posted: November 15, 2012 at 12:49 PM (#4303346)
John Buck is JP Arencibia with fewer letters, but you need two catchers and they cured themselves of Jeff Mathis, so I'm good with it.8. ...and Toronto selects: Troy Tulowitzki Posted: November 15, 2012 at 01:38 PM (#4303385)
...with d'Arnaud looming over them both like an allegory of death.9. Rants Mulliniks Posted: November 15, 2012 at 02:00 PM (#4303400)
I was trying to figure out why I thought Arencibia was a star.
He hit 26 homers as a rookie, and has hit at least one homer in his first game of the season each of his three years in the league.
Anyone think that Arrencibia might end up as DH?
I hope not. The .280 OBP plays bad enough at catcher.12. Good cripple hitter Posted: November 15, 2012 at 04:21 PM (#4303527)
He's a catcher with a shaky defensive reputation and a bit of pop in his bat. Someone might think that if you move him off catcher his bat will improve and you'd get a better glove behind the plate. If d'Arnaud gets promoted they might try it a few times, but they'd need to carry a third catcher or just totally give up on JP as a catcher for that to happen. His batting average and discipline would need to improve a lot to make it worthwhile.13. Walt Davis Posted: November 15, 2012 at 06:08 PM (#4303680)
I remember watching a game and Buck and Tabler were talking about how the BP pitcher was mocking Arencibia for swinging at really high pitches in BP. Arencibia reportedly said "It's batting practice, why should I practice not swinging at pitches?" It was the perfect soundbite for a player who had an OBP of .250 at the time.
I'd certainly look to trade one of them, preferably Buck (who makes some money too).14. Matthew E Posted: November 15, 2012 at 10:21 PM (#4303905)
Though everyone seems to be oohing and awing over Mark Buehrle, Josh Johnson, Jose Reyes and Emilio Bonifacio
Bonifacio?Well, the Jays' previous utility guy was what's left of Omar Vizquel, so by comparison...
I actually like the acquisition of Bunnyface. He can handle any defensive position other than C in a capable manner, makes for a good defensive replacement or pinch runner, hits for a tolerable average from both sides of the plate, and draws a non-embarrassing number of walks. As far as bench/utility guys go, he's useful even in his bad years, and quite valuable in his good years.16. 'Spos stares out the window, waits for spring Posted: November 15, 2012 at 10:48 PM (#4303935)
Also, as Matthew E mentioned, he's a big step up from the rotting corpse of Omar Vizquel.
...he's a big step up from the rotting corpse of Omar Vizquel.
Joe Inglett would have been a step up.
Mike McCoy would have been a step up.18. Gamingboy Posted: November 15, 2012 at 11:54 PM (#4303978)
I'm not quite willing to say that Chris Woodward would have been a step up, but it might have been close.
Post 15 was helpful. I'd assumed that The Good Face was a mostly useless 5th outfielder, but he has a chance of being a useful utility guy.
What's in store for Blue Jays catcher J.P. Arencibia?
"Mr. Arencibia, what do you know about the Avengers Initiative?"
#14 and #15 ... doesn't sound like "oohing and 'awing'" to me. :-)

Train accident highlights wheelchair safety
Relevant offers
Calls for wheelchair safety at railway crossings are being reignited after a disabled woman was critically injured when she was struck by a freight train at a Western line level crossing.
The 23-year-old victim could not be removed from the chair and was hit and dragged by the train at the Morningside level crossing on Monday morning despite the efforts of bystanders.
She is being treated at Auckland Hospital for severe head injuries and multiple fractures.
There are 23 level crossings throughout Auckland and many of them have gaps of 60mm to 80mm between the track and the asphalt.
The standard tyres for both manual and electric chairs are narrower than these gaps measuring 25mm wide and 50mm respectively.
Waitakere Ranges Local Board personal assistant Sharon Davies uses a wheelchair and said she would not have gone over the crossing.
''A bit of personal responsibility is important. I have never been across that crossing. Every day I go over the Glen Eden crossing and it's certainly not ideal,'' she said.
''I often get halfway and think how horrible it would be if something went wrong. Luckily for me I could get out of my chair if it did become trapped.''
Davies said sometimes the best option for wheelchair users was to take the long way around and be safe.
KiwiRail spokeswoman Kimberly Brady said the organisation had received a complaint about the Glenview Rd crossing in Glen Eden which was being investigated.
She said KiwiRail built a bridge or underpass at the site because the rail line was its responsibility.
''But because it's basically an extension of the footpath it is up to Auckland Transport to provide the funding. We understand research into a bridge has been done.''
Davies was instrumental in getting an overbridge put in at the Swanson train station.
''All the affected parties need to come together to find a practical solution. In the meantime I hope the work done on the crossings is actually improving them, not just regular maintenance.
''They are not only a concern for wheelchair users but for mothers with prams and people with walkers.''
Gaps between the asphalt and rail are not the only issue. The height of the rail compared to the asphalt can also create troughs or bumps which are tough to navigate.
Auckland Transport spokesman Mark Hannan said the crossing on St Judes St in Avondale is earmarked for removal after a full review of crossings in 2011.
It will be replaced by an underpass or bridge.
The Morningside and Manuroa Rd, Takanini, crossings are also priorities. More than $1 million has been allocated for further investigation and design work for the 2014-15 and 2015-16 financial years.

Data, programmatic buying at heart of 3 new offerings
Look for new targeting and buying options from three new offerings in the online and television spaces. Here are the details:
First, clypd is launching a programmatic ad API for television. The platform will work alongside existing platform like BrightRoll, DataXu and Google/Doubleclick Bid Manager; it will launch with ad content from Cox Media, Suddenlink and other inventory creators.
"The television advertising industry has existed for more than 70 years, giving it a long time to evolve from its analog roots into an extremely complicated business and technical environment," said Joel Melby, Chief Technology Officer at clypd. "The ways in which television advertising works are fundamentally different from the world of digital advertising. This API presents television advertising in a way that takes into consideration the expectations of automated demand platforms, giving all TV advertising stakeholders the ability to speak a common language."
Meanwhile, Treasure Data has launched a flexible cloud data solution which gives brands the ability to collect, store and analyze data in near-real-time. Using the platform marketers can use both scheduled and ad hoc SQL data queries and integrate to existing infrastructures.
"Ad tech companies are constantly challenged to collect and use the massive data volumes created rapidly from so many sources today. To stand out amongst competition, Treasure Data customers rely on the scale and efficiency at which our service can collect and process the huge datasets quickly. By offloading data processing to Treasure Data, ad tech companies can focus more resources on developing market-differentiating technologies and features," said Hiro Yoshikawa, CEO of Treasure Data.
Finally Targeted Victory and The Data Trust are partnering for a voter data platform. Through the partnership Targeted Victory will integrate political data inventory from The Data Trust into their Audience Exchange; this will allow for hyper targeted audience segmentation abilities.
"The Data Trust's partnership with Targeted Victory is a first step towards making the same high quality data used by our partners for offline targeting available for their online ad targeting as well," said John DeStefano, president of The Data Trust. "This announcement is also a significant advancement towards achieving our 2014 goal of creating a common data platform from which all right of center campaigns and organizations can make strategic decisions."

Nokia Sells Finland Headquarters For £138m - But Not Moving Out
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By Alistair Charlton | December 4, 2012 9:58 PM EST
Nokia has agreed to sell its Finland headquarters for €170m (£138m), which it will now lease back from buyer Exilion as part of a long-term deal.
The company was tipped to be selling its 48,000 square metre headquarters, located in Espoo, 12 miles west of Helsinki, back in early October as part of an ongoing drive to sell off non-core assets.
Nokia CFO Timo Ihamuotila said in a statement: "We had a comprehensive sales process with both Finnish and foreign investors and we are very pleased with this outcome. As we have said before, owning real estate is not part of Nokia's core business and when good opportunities arise we are willing to exit these types of non-core assets
"We are naturally continuing to operate in our head office building on a long-term bases."
In October it was thought that Nokia would raise between £160m and £240m from the sale, but the cheaper price announced today may indicate a better deal on the long-term lease from Exilion.
When the sale was first rumoured back in October, Nokia was quick to confirm that it would not be relocating. The company told IBTimes UK: "Divesting real estate is an entirely different thing compared to the location of the headquarters. As we have said many times before, we have no plans to move our headquarters."
Six months ago, Nokia said it plans to close its manufacturing facility in Salo, Finland and cut its global workforce by 10,000, with the aim of saving $2bn in costs by the end of 2013.
The sale will give Nokia a much-needed cash injection, as it struggles to compete against Apple and Samsung in the smartphone market; the company bet its future success on a partnership with Microsoft, which recently saw the launch of the Lumia 920 and 820 smartphones, running Windows Phone 8.
While the company hopes its Lumia range will steal some market share from its rivals, Nokia's biggest growth segment during the last quarter was its budget feature phones.

This is my new life after being diagnosed with an incurable bladder disease called Interstitail Cystitis (IC). I want to encourage,educate and inspire others through my blog. I also want to increase awareness of this little known, but life changing disease. This is a journey of my new life with chronic pain and how I have learned to live with it and find the purpose in my pain.

Rogers speaks to DNC about clean energy
Send this to a friend
- John Downey
- Senior Staff Writer- Charlotte Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
Duke Energy CEO Jim Rogers addressed the Democratic National Convention Thursday afternoon, calling for a long-term energy policy — including nuclear, natural gas, renewables coal and energy efficiency — to promote reliable, but cleaner, energy for the future.
There was a small glitch with the teleprompter as he started to speak. But that was fixed and he was able to make his remarks to the crowd.
He addressed the convention as the co-chair of the Charlotte in 2012 Host Committee. But he said his role was not political.
"Now, I'm not here tonight as a Democrat or a Republican, a policy pundit or an energy CEO," he said. "I'm here, simply, as a grandfather."
Using ideas he has worked into many speeches over the years, he told the convention that the decisions made today will affect the energy and environmental future for generations.
"Decades from now, when our grandchildren look back at the decisions we made as a country, will they think that we did the right thing?" he asked. "One way we can make this world a better place for our grandkids is to lay the groundwork for a cleaner, more sustainable future."
He calls it the "grandchildren test" — he has eight of his own — and he has talked about in speeches to civic groups, regulators, environmental organizations and political leaders for at least as long as he has been in Charlotte.
He cited the need for zero-emission sources like wind, solar and nuclear power (a formulation often objected to by environmental groups who do not like equating nuclear with renewable sources). But he says the country needs to start with an "all of the above strategy" which he has said repeatedly in the past includes a role for natural gas and clean coal.
John Downey covers the energy industry and public companies for the Charlotte Business Journal.

The past few years have been full of legal and medical struggles for Orléans wrestler Devon Nicholson.
Nicholson - who wrestles under the moniker Hannibal - has spent the past few years in legal battles and medical treatments to overcome the devastating effects of an incident in the wrestling ring by Larry Shreve, also known as Abdullah the Butcher.
Nicholson has always alleged that he contracted hepatitis C after Shreve cut himself with a blade several times in a match, then cut Nicholson with the same blade.
Shortly after, Nicholson found out he had hepatitis C. Tests later confirmed that both Shreve and Nicholson had the same uncommon genotype of hepatitis C.
He lost his Work Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) contract and his dream turned into a nightmare.
A judge has now ruled that he did contract hepatitis c from Shreve -who must pay Nicholson $2.3 million in damages.
"He said he didn't cut me, and he didn't have hepatitis c," Nicholson said. "You don't have to have any special medical knowledge to know that's dangerous."
Nicholson hasn't just been fighting a legal battle since the May 2007 fight.
The real fight has been for
his life, going through intense treatment to fight against the hepatitis c. The treatment Nicholson went through is similar to chemotherapy, in the sense that it was very strong and caused crippling side effects.
"I felt like I was in prison," he said about his time in treatment. "It was a nightmare situation. But it was well worth the suffering."
Nicholson was cured, and is now hepatitis free. It's part of the reason the settlement was less than the $6 million originally requested.
Now, Nicholson trains twice a day at the Bob McQuarrie Recreation Complex, lifting
weights for several hours, and later coming back to run. He balances this with working at a group home for developmentally-delayed adults. "I'm a very dedicated athlete, I think I'm in good shape," he said. "I still have the talent."
At 31 years old, he's putting all his efforts behind trying to achieve his dream he thought was gone for good. Now that he's hepatitis-free, he can try out for the WWE again.
He said that other wrestlers are encouraging him, hoping to see he gets a second chance.
He'll get his chance in Iowa on July 18, but he's already had a chance to step back in the ring.
"It felt like I was home," he said, about his May 10 match in Smiths Falls. "I don't think I fell asleep until 5 a.m. later on. It's just nice to be healthy and out in that world. I think that's what my destiny is."
"Hannibal" will wrestle closer to home on Aug. 30 in a Great North Wrestling match against AJ Styles in Hawkesbury, Ont.
He hopes that the battle against hepatitis will be in his past, and his long-time dream of wrestling in the WWE league becomes his new reality.
"Now I can hopefully put this behind me and be known for something else," Nicholson said.
