Lowe has an 1.00 ERA in 36 innings of relief.

Sanchez and Stro going the other way.
I kid. Shouldn't cost us much. He's bounced back nicely this year. Good slider.

If it's three prospects I assume they're all in the lower minors

Prediction: We gave away a good low-A prospect that some poster will be very upset about and that player will never reach the MLB

Probably a lefty
EDIT - My bad, I assumed we had three lefties for some reason

But what if we can re-sign him!
AA "I don't like rentals" Trades for rentals.

We only have two in the bullpen - Cecil and Loup. Can't see either of those going down for another RHP.

I'll wait until the names are announced until I go all Schad in this thread, but three minor leaguers for an impending FA who wasn't very good until this season, on the surface, seems pretty bad. Just have to hope the minor leaguers are fringy, which I expect they will be.
A stacked pen plus a rotation with an ace in it is something the Jays could have used all season, rather than just the last two months. If AA is going out, he's going out with a bang, I guess.

Wonder if someone like Ryan McBrook or L.B. Dantzler might be involved. Neither on our prospect list, both are first baseman, a bit of a long jam at that position in the minors.

Well, depending on what we gave up, this might at least be the moment when our all-in pursuit transitions from infuriating to hysterically funny.

3 prospects for this guy?
One bad outing and his ERA balloons like crazy. We'll see if he's a fluke or not

Osuna
Sanchez
Lowe
Cecil
Grandpa
Loup
Schultz
Hendriks
Tepera
That's way too many relievers. If they go with an 8-man pen, then Tepera has to be the odd man out. If it's a 7-man pen, then it will have to be Tepera and one of Schultz/Loup (most likely Schultz).
