Straight up trade by Blue Jays and Tigers. 24 year old CF Anthony Gose for 23 year old 2B Devon Travis.

Gose has elite speed and defence but is a poor hitter. He is like a younger Rajai Davis with time to improve.

Devon Travis was the top ranked prospect in a weak Tigers farm system. DET was in the process of converting him to CF as Kinsler is locked up long term. Jays view him as a 2B.

Your opinions?

I simply don't know enough about either player to make an honest evaluation.

On paper trading our top prospect looks bad, but its not as though he's all that much younger than the guy we got. We definitely need an upgrade defensively.

Defensive stud, anything he brings offensively is a plus.
