A lot of speculation the Yanks will get Yamamoto.
Imagine missing Ohtani and then rhe yanks get both Soto and Yamamoto? Lol

Yeah, that's the fear here. The Jays pitching was great last year but the Yanks among others are going to bolster everywhere they can and will probably spend to do it. While I don't think a Soto deal goes down until after Ohtani signs (as the Padres would be wise to hold on to get a team like the Jays desperate and up the ante), I do not know what the Jays could do should the above scenario happen? Getting one Bellinger at an inflated amount of years is crazy. Going in with the same characters is also nonsensical. I go back to what I was saying a few weeks ago that you have to assess the possibility of dealing Vlad or Bo for a large package and come back in a couple years. Relying on pitching when your division bolstered is a tough proposition.
