i doubt JTR takes less years and less guaranteed dollars than what's being offered regardless who the team is, tbh. he's a catcher. being a FA again after two years of catching will only hurt his value. would he get ~$22M/year at almost 32 as a guy who probably shouldn't be a DH on a contender, and who might not be able to catch FT, either? idk. i think he has to take the longer deal with more guaranteed.
if the Jays would do a TDA for Teoscar swap, i'd probably be down for that tho.
