Factor in having to replace Bo too and it's just not a recipe for repeating what they did last year.
They might be able to swing a trade, but I think we need to come to terms with the fact that the Jays just don't have a lot that teams want. We've gone through that for the last few years now.

The Jays went 13-16 to start the year, but went 81-52 from there on out (60.9 win %). Sure, maybe their playoff run involved a lot of luck, but was their season also a big fluke? I don't know. This might be a very good roster. And they didn't even have Bichette in the playoffs until the WS.
