If the Jays continue to tinker around the margins of the team, it tells me that they are likely going to sleepwalk to the deadline to move Bo, Vlad, and a bunch of starting pitchers. I don’t understand what the point of doing that would be…maybe hope that Vlad improves his stock so that he can increase his market value?
This team, as constructed, can’t compete within their own division with the Yanks and Orioles (and god knows who the Red Sox are and what kind of alchemy the Rays can pull off again). I don’t understand what this team really is. We were “mid” last year while the teams around us have gotten better. We very possibly could be AL East bottom feeders if one or more of our aging pitchers gets injured.
