Toronto almost never has “targets”. It’s not how they operate.
Personal opinion but I don’t think they were that hot for Nimmo or Conforto, for defensive reasons. From everything they’ve said...
The Jays did exactly what teams (real life and video games...) are supposed to do. Draft and develop talent, then use that talent to improve your teams roster or trade that surplus talent to fill...
Law's take
This take may be insufficiently warm for the hot stove, but the trade that sent Daulton Varsho from Arizona to Toronto for Gabriel Moreno and Lourdes Gurriel might be good for both...

Blue Jays make win-now move, getting Daulton Varsho for Gabriel Moreno, Lourdes Gurriel Jr.
By Kaitlyn McGrath
Months ago, the Blue Jays’ offseason began with a series of questions. Every...
The D-back side of the trade.

We got ride of two of the main “class clowns” this off-season. Hernandez and Gurriel were two of the main guys when we were a losing team, maybe that effected how they handled themselves. It might’ve...
lol... there's no pleasing you.
Yup, this is quite interesting. Serious flexibility and sublime D all around for this club. Exciting.
This trade is a perfect example of how you need to give up something of value in order to receive something of value in return. I don't think it's a coincidence that this deal was consummated shortly...
For the dozens of posters calling out 'idiots' who believe Gurriel is a star or don't know about Varsho's defense, who are you responding to? I haven't seen a single person say that.
From reading...
Who did the grading? Some of the ESPN writers are absolute morons.
Two criteria to evaluate the trade:
1- Is it a fair trade?
Absolutely. We paid a lot, but what did you expect for fucking Varsho? I am going to ignore the idiots focusing on his average offensive...

4 years of control of a 4.6 WAR left-handed hitting outfielder, for an unproven prospect and 1-year of Lourdes, who had a major power drought last year, and is looking decidedly average, and people...
There's no way Teo / Gurriel can deal with that. These moves and the fence changes a pretty clever way to gain a homefield advantage.
You are very wrong. We are way better as a Team.
It's interesting that the two main jokesters Teo and Gurriel have been moved. Might be purely a coincidence.
Gurriel is worth basically nothing. Horrendous defender in left and not an impact bat despite teasing it at time. I think his swing is too mechanical / rigid or something.
I'm not even really sure Toronto considers Gurriel a loss. Springer/Varsho/Kiermaier/Merrifield is clearly their OF rotation and there's a ton of positional flexibility there. 5.4M for Gurriel isn't...
Varsho had 4.6 WAR in 2022
Played at the same pace in 2021
Destroyed AA at 22 without striking out much
They get his four prime seasons
Perfect roster fit. Left handed CF who is also the...
Okay, then we’re not getting Bryan Reynolds lol. Orelvis isn’t highly valued at all in the industry and Reynolds projects for 4 WAR and has three cheap years of control, you’re not gonna get him for...
