I was excited when Toronto acquired him, but I see why Baltimore fans were happy he was dfa’d. His defense was horrendous, and the throwing the breaking ball to him was basically an automatic strikeout. Toronto also wasn’t a good fit for him, as we already have smoak,EE at 1b/dh and colabello will be back soon.

Phillies put a claim in on him last time he was in DFA limbo, so they will probably do it again.
Stick him at 3B and move Franco to 1B.
Franco has been awful at 3B this year. (-0.6 WAR)

You cant judge defense by a WAR. Its essentially an opinion thing. He makes rookie mistakes every so often, but he knows how to flash the glove there too. I’d still add him for left though.

You can, given a large enough sample. Opinion tells you nothing really, everyone’s opinion is different and none of them can really be quantified.

Jays wee need depth

Sorry, but Paredes and the word “versatility” should never appear in the same sentence. To be versatile implies that you can actually be competent at multiple positions. Paredes simply cannot play in the field well anywhere.
