Not if it means losing Bo and not signing another bat/reliever.
Apparently the Jays have just over $600m to spend, half has already been spent.
Bo, Bellinger, reliever better than tucker imo.Unless its Tucker and Bo….well then go with that.
Tucker is the best player available, if you can get him..do it.
the reliever can be figured out after, make a trade (Miller!), but also a lot can happen with relievers over 162 games, its easier to trade for them. there are always elite closers available at the deadline.
give me tucker, I dont care about the number[/quote]

Pass on tucker if he wants $418 over 11.
Sign Bo 5years – $150m
Sign Bellinger 5 years – $150m

Grab another relieverTake out Lauer for Lukes
and
King/Stanifer for Tiedeman👍
any combo works for me, although I would prefer to keep King, but not a deal breaker.
Miller is still cheap contract wise and comes with 5 years of controlMiller time 👍💙
how bout
Jays get Mason Miller
SD gets Teidman, Lauer, Bowden Francis, Arjun Nimala
What a fun add Rogers is. Cimber was also a fun pitcher to watch.
Not a big SO pitcher, but gets outs. behind a strong defensive team will be a good one.
Tyler Rogers has been in 158 games the last two seasons and given up a total of 11 non-intentional walks.my concern level is even lower now.
its dec 15th. Jays have knocked off a good chunk of their needs.
There will be a good relief/closer available.
I saw Mason Miller could be had also. that would be something, yes pleaseWho says Hoffman is the closer or that the Jays even go with a single, predetermined closer? More teams are going with a committee of trusted high leverage who go in where the matchups are most advantageous. That sure seems to be the way they’re putting together their bullpen – hardthrowers, funky delivery, play around the edges types. Remember, Rogers doesn’t give up HRs. He induces soft contact which works well with a good defensive team.
Closer by committee is retarded. They need an elite closer, end of story.
They can have every leverage setup they want but the final out of Game 7 in the World Series calls for an elite closer and the Jays don’t have one yet. Even the Dodgers, who won, realized that having to use Yamamoto on 0 days rest was not something they wanted to do again. That’s the team they have to beat.
yeah, it’s not end of story. Having an elite closer is obviously better if there are no other considerations. But there are other considerations, like having a budget. At the start of the offseason, Jays needed to address pitching – starting and relievers – and add at least one bat. Going into next season with the same lineup except no Bo was not an option.
Adding Diaz $69M along with Cease and others might have priced them out of Tucker/Bo. He was never really an option. They were in on Suarez but were outbid. I’d rather have Rogers and go with using your top leverage guys based on best matchups than lose out on adding a serious bat or two.
