Bautista will be 36 by the time his new contract kicks in, probably not a guy you want to commit $20M+ per year to for 4 to 5 more years.
Encarnacion will be 34 by the time his new contract kicks in. He would be a little more palatable since he is younger, and will likely just be your full time DH for the length of the deal but could also see why the would move on from him.

I'd rather keep Bautista over EE. He could play 1st/DH whereas Edwin is done in the field and doesn't want to play it anyways. Baustita is two years older but keeps his body in great shape....... EE not so much.
That's attitude aside, because I think Bautista might be one of the biggest #######s in baseball and his actions cost the Jays on close calls with the umpires.
