I'm still really, really leery of Burnett. I think the Jays have enough surplus talent around that they could scrape together for a Zito type, if he is actually being shopped.
The contracts being thrown around by Riccardi really seem to go against the whole "Moneyball" premise, unless I'm totally out in left field. BJ Ryan isn't exactly proven the same way a Rivera or Gagne type is, and he's earning pretty close to the same amount.
