Hard to fault the Jays if someone takes the other deal.

FWIW, the Blue Jays were the runner-up for Francisco Lindor. Don't know specific players, but I'm told their offer had what is probably a higher ceiling yet was centered on long-term prospects. Cleveland chose the package from the Mets b/c it balanced short- and long-term help.

Thanks for the info. Man it gets tiring hearing the Jays “almost” getting impact players.
