What the jays have done this off season is honestly ridiculous. We have the best offence in baseball, and then compliment that by signing estrada and happ and trading for chavez.. Yeah estrada was great last year, but for the less money we could have signed Zimmerman, a relief arm and still trade chavez. Id rather have Stroman, Zimmerman, Dickey, Chavez and one of hutchison or sanchez than stroman dickey happ estrada and chavez.
