Last year, my first representing the Jays in the SB Nation off-season simulation , the Jays were adding as they stepped into the centre of this window of contention. Everyone who had helped them make it to the wildcard in 2022 was still there, and it was just a matter of trying to upgrade around the edges. The difficulty was that money looked tight, with payroll already at an all time high and $24m in effectively dead money committed to an injured Hyun-Jin Ryu and a long traded Randal Grichuk .

He’s a handy player and seemed to be a good addition to the clubhouse last year, but he’s not worth close to $18m, so he gets a $0.5m buyout instead. Chad Green is more complicated. He pitched just 12 innings after returning from Tommy John, and the headline results weren’t good. That’s often deceptive in tiny samples, though, and his 12:3 K:BB ratio, 2.67 FIP, and 95.6mph average fastball suggested he’s still the quality setup man he was in New York.
