Open Thread: Trade Deadline Day

This trade deadline day will be different than the past few, as the Jays are genuine buyers instead of sellers. Instead of parting with players on the major league team, we may instead be bidding adieu to prospects we’ve grown to love and dream on. However, the new additions should hopefully be able to provide some much need support and reinforcements and help us tally up some more wins.
