I think it makes sense for the Jays to take the chance on the 2b prospect over CF guy but it seems like a like for like deal involving 2 guys with potential but big questions at the big league level.

I think it's more they believe gose and his bat would hurt them in the lineup everyday, so they took the best deal they could find. Obviously, it's not Roberto Alomar.
Team is in disarray, but SF and KC only needed 87-88 wins to play for the title, so it's probably what they are shooting for now.
