This works out great for the Habs if Suzuki is just scratching the surface but if not this could be like Gomez 2.0
I think the deal is high, and the risk is also significant. It is probably the best that Montreal could do given the circumstances: no interest in a bridge deal, higher tax rate, Suzuki's very young age, etc.

But when I watch him I feel less concerned that he will "Gomez-out." Suzuki sure looks like he could be a player, and does not really resemble Yamamoto's extremely fortuitous play from 2020.
