On Ruiz' arrival and supplemental draft picks

Judging from the comments on the last few Ruiz posts it seems like a few of you were hoping he really wouldn't show up in Toronto.
Fair enough, considering the Jekyll-Hyde type player we discussed in the last post. Folks who follow TFC have a right to wonder which Ruiz will suit up for Toronto -- the 24-goal scorer from 2002, or the guy who battled injuries and coaches on his way to just one goal so far this season.
One of them is in Collingwood, training and bonding with his new teammates right now.
Sorry to disappoint the anti-Ruiz crowd, but Ruiz did indeed arrive in Toronto yesterday and made the trip to the team retreat this morning.
And for the pro-Pescadito camp... stop worrying. He's here. Now sit back and wait for the goals to roll in.


Supplemental Note

Much of the debate on the Ruiz trade focuses on what exactly TFC gave up to acquire him.
