Resist the March to the Ivory Tower. Jays could’ve used another big stick. Probably a playoff team without it, and in that regard Chapman was a plus. But it was Plan C from adding Freeman or Ramirez. I think Vladdy would’ve surprised with at least league avg D at 3b.
Bo will be fine eventually, and I think you can count on Vlad, Teo, and Springer but factoring injuries (guess would’ve been Springer), you knew the 4th OF would get a ton of ABs. And they downgraded there. Plenty of legit question marks on other guys. Again, still a playoff team but they could’ve gone next level. The herd thought that was Chapman and hasnt been case just yet
