No such thing as a bad one year deal. The true worst case here is we are all hyperventilating next offseason because we are waiting to see if he picks us over other teams that are clamoring for his services.
maybe (definitely) I'm a homer... but I fail to see how anyone could see this as a bad deal? seems like some classic Shapiro/Atkins (never shatkins) floor raising with obvious upside. 53 games and 1.2 fWAR is still good! Craig Edwards at Fangraphs predicted 4 years @ 16m aav. what's not to like?
Is he better than Joe Panik, or Brandon Drury, or Travis Shaw, or whoever else the Jays threw out there last year? I'm comfortable saying yes. And it's not my money.
You know what they say, there is no such thing as a bad 1 year deal for players who were over 7 fWAR in their last full season. This feels like a slam dunk to me, can we just start the season already(after signing Walker)

I give this article four pelvic thrusts.

You should definitely say yes, because you are correct!
