Even Teo having a surprising year protected by an elite Dodgers offense and costing 25$ million has 1 less WAR then Varsho
The Varsho trade is starting to look amazing for the Jays . Moreno is showing exactly what the Jays feared - he can’t hit for power and now can’t hit for average . Gurriel had half a good season until NL pitchers adjusted and realize he sucks
Chapman is actually having a very nice year but the Jays offered him 100 million and he turned it down . They then pivoted and moved on to get Turner and IKF . What did you expect them to do when he turned down an exceptionally better deal then he ended up signing
The Jays issues 100% is that Kirk , Springer , Bo and vladdy have taken huge steps back , and the bullpen is mostly garbage this year
(And that they can’t develop players / home grow any players to augment the team)
I hate this management and hate the coaching decisions, but they went after Ohtani seriously , and no one they have traded is really doing anything .
Their problem is hiring bad coaches and terrible player development - prospects and their younger roster players

Agreed. And the Jays actually do have a couple possibilities down in AAA, but they won't call them up. Just keep trotting out Springer and Turner instead.
