He gave them substantially more. AA was a gunslinger who lost as many trades as he won. Dickey wasn't the ace they wanted but he was a good pitcher who gave them 800 innings. It is what it is. Scherzer is trending that way. Which was the whole point of my original post. A veteran who will eat innings regardless of stats.

I'm definitely enjoying the game lol.

Scherzer looked dominant at times, and they just keep coming up with timely hits.

They need to look at a proven closer.

Hoffman scares the ever living #### out of me.

Let's please get a closer, this is pathetic.

He prevailed in getting Atkins on the phone for a legit closer, that's about it.

Syndergaard only ended up with a 13.5 WAR over 6 season with the Mets . As elite he was for 1 season in the end over the life of the trade he was pretty meh

Dickey was also meh , but it isn’t nearly as bad a trade as people make it out to be

Travis D went on for the longest career but has a 9 war over his career and a season best of 2.8 years later for the Braves

Ended up as a trade that was nothing for all involved . Not sure why Jays fans get so worked up over it

Lol. Sorry,, you're right. I should be happy about Hoffman almost blowing a game vs. a garbage team.

Just like Flames game threads, apparently you get judged a lot here too lol

Exactly. Dickey sucked like everyone else involved. That was my point.

If the Jays are going to be ultra aggressive at the trade deadline they best get another closer option and probably another high leverage reliever as well.

They're also tied with Houston for the second best record among division leaders.

Which is important, because you can't lose two straight in the wild card round if you have a bye
