OT: The Toronto Blue Jays

Kinda hoping Hoffman next guy traded. I know he’s been good lately but I’ll never trust him in a big game situation again. Might be hard to find a taker at his 13 mill owed next year.
 
140 WRC+ in AA at 21 and 113 WRC+ in AAA at 22 with plus defense seems worth a bit more than a slapdick reliever. They coulda got a lot more for him last year that's for sure.
 
His first year (and 55% of his career innings) he had a 27 K%. Dropped massively to 20% in year 2 in only 35 innings and up to 22.5% this year. So..not saying he's going to be anything great, but he's shown the ability to strike guys out. Looks like this year he can't throw first pitch strikes which is causing problems. Might just be a pitch mix or fastball location issue that can be tightened up. Also can't stay healthy. So a wildcard I'd say.
He's also had three different injuries over the past two years.

Regardless, he might be nothing, but there is enough intrigue and control here where its good for an expiring Varsho
 
Yeah, there's upside there. Nothing to hate considering how meh Varsho has been at the plate. Like how does a guy with his power and build have a .132 ISO? Insane.
