Morales hit 30 at Kauffman. If healthy, in any other ballpark that's a 35-40 HR hitter. At Rogers Centre and playing in the AL East, even bigger bump.
This is a great signing, IMO. You get Morales, who's the same age as EE, at half the cost and still allow yourself to improve the outfield.
Forget Rogers, that's just a smart business decision by the new regime. I love this deal.
