I'm glad they didn't go after Fielder, because of conditioning, but you can't complain about Hamilton's work ethic. To me he's worth a 5 year contract for $20M each year, though I believe about a month ago I read on PSD that the Jays weren't interested in him. Bats like him don't come around often.

Yeah. Guys like Hamilton don't sign for 5 years, they sign for 8 or 9 at 20+ per which doesn't interest the Jays. He'll get a Fielder type 214 million contract.
