The Toronto Blue Jays could look at trading infielder Spencer Horwitz this off-season and the Arizona Diamondbacks could be a perfect suitor for this deal.
The Blue Jays need to bring in at least one solid starting pitcher this off-season as their current rotation is not good enough to take them where they want to go next season.
Blue Jays could look at trading Spencer Horwitz for Ryne Nelson
Blue Jays infielder Spencer Horwitz has been linked to a ton of trade rumors this off-season since he has solid value but does not fit into their defense heading into next season.
One solid option that was posted on social media would be trading him and Josh Kasevich to the Diamondbacks in exchange for starting pitcher Bryne Nelson which would be a fair trade.
MOCK TRADE:
To ARZ: 1B Spencer Horwitz and SS Josh Kasevich
To TOR: SP Ryne Nelson
The DBacks are going to lose Christian Walker to FA, and overall they lack INF depth. Horwitz can immediately slot in as an everyday 1B option while Kasevich is MLB ready as a utility infielder with a + glove.
The Blue Jays need a SP whos preferably under control and has the potential for impact. Enter Ryne Nelson.
Nelson experienced a velo jump after coming back from the IL in August, sitting 96.7 MPH.
Since August 7th: 3.12 ERA/3.89 FIP/2.89 xFIP/3.8 BB%/25.6 K%

Nelson struggled a bit last season as he finished with a 4.24 ERA but after coming back from the IL in August, he finished the season with a 3.12 ERA which hopefully he can carry into next season.
While the Blue Jays have been linked to better pitchers in free agency, this could end up being a solid option for them since they are still unsure of what to do with Horwitz.
