I believe the Jays will be targeting swing-and-miss bullpen arms at the deadline and not much else.
They have a proven ace on the staff already. His name is Max. They didn't spend over 15 large on him to be depth. Let's see how he looks tonight.
They may target a depth starter but they see Manoah filling that void as well.
Ross said in the media they would like a right-handed bat. Why would he show his hand like this? It's a calculated move to pressure the Yankees and drive up the price of someone like Suarez. The Jays are counting on Vlad coming around as the big righty "addition".
Let the Yankees get Suarez (at an inflated price) he's just another bad defence guy that good pitching can shut down. In fact, good pitching can shut down anyone in that lineup not named Judge. And 4 fingers will shut him down.
