Good trade for Toronto.

In his rookie season (2016) he was an all-star with great offensive numbers. Jays are buying low as he struggled in 2017 missing most of the season with a thumb injury.

His defence is sup-par but his bat (if to potential) makes up for it.

Young, versatile (plays IF and OF) which obviously fills a glaring need, and some potential to work with. A major league ready prospect traded for a longer term (albeit a good one) project. Fits the "window to win" Donaldson period more so than the guy we gave up.
