Jair has spent about a month every season for the last 3 years injured. He barely does anything to "bolster" your rotation. He's bottom of the rotation in K/9 and tops it in BB/9. His WHIP in the NL is about average w/ the rest of your rotation in the AL. The only major benefit is that he's a 53% GB pitcher. I beg to differ that he does anything more than win you 5-8 more games than the previous season.
Plus a 15M 7 year contract will bankrupt you quicker than you think. You'll barely win out in the budget aspect of this deal alone. And that is if you don't bring in anyone else.
