@ShiDavidi joins @BlakeMurphyODC to break down the Blue Jays' trade for José Soriano. For the Blue Jays, newly acquired outfielder Brett Bateman has the potential to play center field at the MLB level within the next year. He said he was in tears talking to George Springer and reminiscing on the Blue Jays' team plane last night. Given the circumstances, the Blue Jays had a good trade deadline. Hoffman (who will receive $3.75 million from the Blue Jays in 2027) is sad to leave Toronto.
