Here's the problems with that...
A: The Middle Infielder Free Agent Market is really thin, Jose Reyes (who has some health issues and will cost a metric tonne of $ and force you to hand over compensation picks) and then a whole bunch of guys that aren't really better then Aaron Hill.
B: As a result of "A" the trade market is going to cost a bunch more.
C: The Jays don't have any middle infield prospects that are close to major league ready in all facets of the game.
That being said I forsee the Jays declining his options and then trying to negotiate a deal that involves less money.

Yeah, he's slumping a bit right now... was bound to happen sometime during season. Everyone slumps every once in a while.
