I think it is a good deal for the jays but considering that it didn't look like he was going to work out for the Mariners not a big loss for them.

I doubt that Chavez will make it a win for the Mariners but it certainly isn`t a hands down win for the Jays just because they got a mediocre pitcher that can have a great game every now and again.
How is Morrow a mediocre pitcher? Sportsnet say all of the time that Morrow has the best stuff out of all of the pitchers and he has the potential to be "ace" of the staff. As for Chavez its way to early to understand what this player is going to turn out as.

So who knows who made the best trade but from the Jays side they acquired a really good starting pitcher which is always a plus.
