When the Toronto Blue Jays anted up at the trade deadline to acquire the necessary pieces to bolster their roster going forward, they had to part ways with quite a few top prospects to get the deals done. As they say, you have to give up quality in order to get quality. However, among all of the moves that the Jays made, there was one that actually seemed a bit puzzling to say the least.
That trade was the one in which Toronto dealt promising infield prospect Will Wagner to the San Diego Padres in exchange for catching prospect Brandon Valenzuela.
