Blues Jays send closer Gregory Soto
to the Cubs for
Tanner Roark Eric Pardinho and Christian Koss
Depth at RP enables a deal to bring in prospects and a vet who might help the growing hole at SP with injury after injury and flameout after flameout.
Only 1 SP out of the 6 originally signed by Toronto has not been injured or released.
At the heart, the Blue Jays believe in Pardinho's ability to bounce back to his original form after Tommy John

Good trade all around.
Rationale: Soto is young for a RP and has the stuff to stick around. He just needs to cut down the walks. I do have tons of RPs myself, so this deal might seem strange, but Soto is one of the few I care to hold onto past next year.
