They just traded their 2 best pitchers and best or 2nd best position player for a handful of prospects. Plus useful pieces in Buck and Bonifacio. Who would have thought the Blue Jays had the pieces to pull that off?
They're also absorbing a lot of contract. Sort of like what the Dodgers did with Crawford, Becket, and Gonzalez.
Mike Stanton is cheap and will remain cheap for a while.
