Smoak was a three win player last year owed 10M over the next two years. There would absolutely be takers for him if he maintains the adjustments he made last year, which is essentially curbing the strikeouts.
You're right, they aren't going to trade him before the season but he would be one of the most attractive bullpen arms at the deadline if they decided to move him.
With one TJS already he's a ticking time bomb to me. Love him as a player and he's been a great story, but the Jays could get some really helpful pieces for him like the Yankees did in 2016 at the deadline.
I think it's safe to say that an overwhelming majority of posters on a Blue Jays message board would prefer to see the Jays make the playoffs over the Angels.
