I despised watching him hit but I have some appreciation for Pillar. He was an elite defender in his prime, gave us highlight after highlight, and was a very valuable player, pretty much the best case scenario for a 32nd round pick. I'm excited for Alford but Pillar deserves all the praise that he gets from many Jays fans.
The return is whatever, but no one pays for defense anyway. I'll take one lottery ticket and maybe Law won't be quite so awful, as relievers tend to just be like that sometimes.
