Might be. They were expected to make one more big deal either Flaherty or Bregman.
I thought Alonso would decide this weekend.

Solid play by Flaherty. The Tigers essentially saved his career so why not go back short term and take another prove it type deal?
Good deal for both sides.
Happy with Scherzer for 1 year 15.5 but that's a fantastic deal for Flaherty as well.
Maybe this is the weak all three Toronto majors make some moves
Camp getting closer…nba trade deadline…4 nations coming up….

Canadian viewers don't bring in the same revenue since the big advertisers aren't as interested in the market as they are with comparable American ones.
From the most recent numbers I can find, the Jays viewership is nearly double the next highest (the Yankees). Even if advertisers value American eyes twice as much as Canadian eyes, the Yankees most recent reported TV revenue was $143 million in 2022.
Maybe I'm vastly underestimating how much advertisers pay for American viewers or something, but it sure seems like Rogers is making at least an extra $100 million or so off the Jays that isn't being reported as revenue for the team.
To be clear, I have way less of a problem with this now that the Jays seem to be interested in spending with the big boys.

Toronto Blue Jays top 20 prospects: Arjun Nimmala, Trey Yesavage lead the way
Misses in the 2022 draft and injuries have hurt the overall depth of the Jays' system, though they have some near-ready MLB talent.

1. Nimmala
2. Yesavage
3. Martinez
4. Kasevich
5. Roden
6. Bloss
7. Tiedemann
8. Perez
9. Stephen
10. Rojas
Some other interesting names are Adrian Pinto at 13 who we got in the Grichuk-Tapia trade. Barriera at 14 and Will Wagner at 19.
Has Bloss, Yesavage and Orelvis as players who can make impacts in 2025. Khal Stephens is his sleeper.
I guess it depends what they do to round out the offense, but I really think Roden is going to end up having a big impact this year.Toronto Blue Jays top 20 prospects: Arjun Nimmala, Trey Yesavage lead the way

The Legend Continues
Honestly if it wasn't for the weird fit I would love to see him in the leadoff spot. He's like the Michael Brantley we always wanted.
By the end of the year, I think we'll see either him or Wagner getting the bulk of the time at leadoff.
And they both bat left handed which is nice. If Wagner has a good spring, I might even start him at leadoff... If Roden is good in the minors, that would be a great option later in the season too. They should probably just go with the hot hand between Wagner, Giménez, or Clement to bat lead off, imo, since no one has really "earned it" yet. Bat Springer 6th to take some of the pressure off him.
