This was a smart move by the Blue Jays who do not have a lot of catcher depth right now in their organization and since Kirk is still young, they now have him locked down for another 5 years.
Kirk has also been on fire in Spring Training a he currently has a .302 batting average with a .819 OPS, 2 homeruns and 8 RBIs in 43 at bats which fans are hoping will continue this season.

This seems like an all around solid deal for the Blue Jays especially with their on going catcher depth issues.
