Despite having the following great players play for the first 80 or so games (EE, Rivera, Nix, McCoy, McDonald, Davis, Patterson), the jays have the 5th best offense in the entire league.
Replacing that group of 7 with Rasmus, Snider, Thames, and Lawrie should improve that even if they don't perform so great.
The main area that the Jays need help in is in the rotation. This season, we've only had 2 decent starters and a bunch of up and down performances from the rest. Depending on Cecil and if his velocity is back permanently or not will make a huge difference. We do need another top end starter, as well as maybe another solid 3rd/4th starter. After that, just fill in the bullpen and it's all good.
It'll just depend on what other cards AA has up his sleeve, but we're extremely close to being one of the very top teams in the league.
