Can't even say how disappointed I'd be if they traded TDA for a Dickey. A prospect with his pedigree at his position should be the center of a deal for a young Cy Young contender like a Felix Hernandez, not a 38 year old one who is a knuckleballer to boot.
And just to be clear, I'm not crapping on Dickey, he'd be a fine 3rd starter on a decent team, but the Jays should be building a contender for the long run, not going all in for one or two seasons. D'Arnaud is a huge part of the future, and if he isn't, swap him up for someone who can be part of the core for the next half decade or a young front line arm, not some fossil at the tail end of his career, no matter how good.
