OT: The Toronto Blue Jays

I hate Porcello. Glad he went elsewhere. Lots of intriguing options still out there, Ryu, Keuchel, Wood, and a couple of stealth upside guys in Jimmy Nelson and Taijuan.
 
Porcello has a pattern of good year, bad year, good year, bad year. This year is supposed to be a good year..
I'd take him over Roark, but don't really care that they didn't get him. As long as they get someone better, because I'd also take Porcello over Jacob Waguespack. Not sure Atkins and Shapiro feel the same way.
They will 100% get one more SP
 
My preference in order

Ryu
Gray
Price
Keuchel
Kluber
Wood
Darvish
Eovaldi

Nelson
Walker
Boyd ( depends on acq cost)
Smith or Alcantra

Happ
Bailey
Nova
Miley
Teheran


The last tier would upset me.
 
One name out there via trade that excites me is Brandon Nimmo. Mets apparently offered him to the Pirates for Marte but they want a young C. Id like tge Jays to wedge in as a 3rd team in a deal and move say, Moreno or McGuire. Id prefer to keep Jansen and Kirk
 
Trading Jansen right now would be selling low.
McGuire in the other hand... if someone makes a good offer take it. I think McGuire is solid backup calibre with a playable bat and above average D. But he has hit like Johnny Bench so far in the majors, and that’s not going to last.
 
I’m going to go out on a limb and predict we miss out on Ryu as well. Citing we had a better offer but he chose elsewhere.

shatkins and co are doing a bang up job of making this franchise an attractive destination.
