This isn’t even about the health of Goins. It’s about replacing Goins who is one of the worst players in baseball and has generally seen significant playing time given the health concerns of Travis and Tulowitzki.Hopefully he can stay healthier than Goins ever could.
So the Jays gave up a 21yr old propsect (Olivares) who hit 17 homers last season in A-ball who seems to have good power for a 30yr old who is soon to be on the decline who hit 18 homers last season. Interesting. I would have kept that prospect.
Still.. He's young and has potential to become something.
Breakout year at 21 at Low A. Toolsy guy who could turn into something but he has a long way to go.
A boats a boat, but the mystery box could be anything! It could even be a boat!
You failed at being a smart ass. You build teams through the draft not through trades you dumb ass.
When I saw this thread atop the board I thought the Jays had traded him away. Forgot the original package.
Yeah, it hasn't been a great fit.
He has negative WAR, the worst on the teamOh for sure, on the Big List of Things Wrong with the Blue Jays, Solarte's not exactly at (or near) the top.

Lol, I have nothing against him. I’m just revisiting signings and trades at the end of the season to see how they panned outOk, He's been the worst Blue Jay this year. He was brought in to be a depth piece. No one expected him to be Jose Altuve. I get that maybe he ran over your family or something to that nature but why are we discussing him right now?
