There are also plenty of good starters available on the FA market. Plenty of these good teams will also be blowing their loads on Harper, Machado, Kershaw, etc. JA Happ would make sense even if he had spent his entire career elsewhere this offseason. The fact that he's spent parts of 6 years in Toronto, and experienced almost all of his success here should give them a leg up on the rest of the league, not the other way around.
