I know the Starting Rotation is going to be an absolute dumpster fire but the Jays can't strikeout on the Stroman deal. The Blue Jays have failed miserably getting value back for players they traded. Sure maybe keeping Stroman long term makes sense but its not like it solves your ultimate problem. It would be Stroman and nothing instead of just nothing. The Jays need to hit a homerun on that return. The rebuild and how long it will take is relying on the value they can get back for Stroman and Giles.
This team is not going to be good again next year. I feel most people have accepted that. They might be bringing in 3 Shoemaker types in the off-season to make it work.
