I'm a J.P hater, believe me, but he has done a good job stocking the Jays system full of nice prospects.

The lack of activity in free agency puzzles Jays fans, as that's how we've relied on being competitive teams the last decade. Now that there are decent prospects to call up, free agency isn't the be all end all. It's a nice change.
