With the return of Francisco Liriano, it made me think: Was the trading of Drew Hutchison for (essentially) 2-years of Liriano, McGuire & subsequently Teoscar the best trade (and one of the first, mind you) of the Shapiro/Atkins era?

Good ol' Hutch pitched a grand total of 11.1 innings for the Pirates (at 0.0 WAR), where Liriano, McGuire & Teoscar have combined for 4.8 WAR in their Jays seasons (and Aoki had 0.2 WAR in his short stint with the Jays to bring it to an even 5.0!).

{WAR is from Baseball Reference - did not search fWAR}

Trying to think of a better series of trades by the current FO and can't - how about you?

Can you see any problem with the Jays offering Matt Shoemaker an invitation to spring training?
