I've never witnessed a player loose quite as much money as Donaldson has this year. He was probably looking at $150+. And now he's gonna be lucky if someone gives him Encarnacion money.

With the pitching the Jays thought they had, they thought they could make something of a run this year. Also, they were expecting a healthy Donaldson to bring in a big return at the deadline. That, obviously, blew up in their faces. The stud prospect does not factor into the 2018 decision making at all as he was never going to hit the bigs this year.
