The more I read about Gose, the more I'm excited by this trade.
It's already been said, but getting elite athleticism in CF (with great potential as a 5 tool player) for a good bat at 1st base is a no-brainer for me. Wallace is probably near ready to make an impact at the major league level, but AA is setting the table for the Jays to have long term success with moves like this.
I view SS, CF, and C the most important positions to build around...besides pitching obviously. They are now stacked in each of these, which is very exciting for Jays fans.
