Bautista is 35 years old, how long can he keep his level of play up? He's already slowing down in right field. Soon he will only be capable of being a DH. Personally for the amount he is probably asking for I would not re-sign him and trade him before the trade deadline if the Blue Jays are not in a playoff spot. If the Blue Jays are in a playoff spot then keep him even if it means losing him for nothing in the off-season and use the money for a younger player.
