I know Ricky's coming off a bad season but dont undermine his value, and then you have TDA who is a top notch prospect
no way this deal goes through

If the Jays were sending D'Arnaud to Texas, I'd expect to see Profar coming back the other way. Obviously not in a 1 for 1 deal, as Profar's value is obviously higher than D'Arnaud's, but I'd definitely want him included. In that event, I'd expect Texas to be unwilling to deal as well.
I mostly agree, although I think if Texas really wanted him (for example) Profar is one of those rare prospects that they would gladly accept in return. He is major league ready and the top prospect in the game. He would also fill the void at 2B, either directly or having Reyes move to second.
Disclaimer for those with poor reading comprehension: This is purely theoretical and I'm not suggesting that I believe a trade like this would happen.
