Yankees/Blue Jays

[Braves155]

Blue Jays Receive:
Tyler Glasnow SP/TB
Spencer Strider SP/ATL (Will be placed on Majors roster)
Bryan De La Cruz OF/MIA
Bryce Harper OF/PHI
Carter Kieboom 3B/WSH
Brady Whalen SS/StL

Yankees Receive:
Max Scherzer SP/NYM.  **TOR pays 2.5M of Scherzer's salary in 2022, '23**
Josh Hader RP/MLW
Luke Voit 1B/NYY
Aaron Judge OF/NYY

Jays are doing this to get a little younger and obtain some pieces the team can truly build around. With the loss of basically all of my OF, we had to blow the roster up a bit, so it was done. The OF additions of De La Cruz and Harper are of immense value to the club as we believe in both. Add in a young pitcher in Strider, who could be an electric starter or closer, and the rotation is solidified. Glasnow will be back in 2023 and the team is aware and fine with that as he is very reliable and good when healthy. The most underrated add in this deal might be Kieboom who will likely begin t tap into his potential this season as he is only 24. These were interesting negotiations and the Jays are pleased with their return.

approves.

Scherzer should have 2.5M covered in both 22 and 23.

This trade grew every time we traded messages to get to a point that we were both happy with. I give up a good amount of talent and take on a bit of salary, but the deal improves my roster for next year. Falling short in the title game, I knew I needed to improve and I think this makes me a better team in 2022. Thanks and good luck @Braves155
