And not only free agents. He was unable to sign some of his draft choices.
Now I don't totally believe JP cause AA was able to sign his draft pick this year. But it's not something to be totally ignored either so Latin American is still a good place to scout!

The major reason for not getting those Americans to sign with TO was because the Blue Jays have been brutal for the past few seasons. As a player you wanted to play with the team who's got a chance to go all the way. The problem with Blue Jays is, they keep trading or losing those young and up and coming. They are signing those high salaried bums instead.
The Blue Jays should keep Jose Bautista, Adam Lind, Arron Hill, Escobar, maybe Encarnation, Buck and play the young guys more rather than putting Lyle O. Their season is almost a wash anyways. Oh yeah, find some young relievers who can play and definitely a good closer.
