Scott Boras with some unpleasantness towards the Jays organization.

http://www.tsn.ca/mlb/story/?id=444568

Baseball's most prominent agent, Scott Boras, openly criticized the Toronto Blue Jays' stagnant offseason on Sunday, likening the team to a "car with a huge engine that is impeded by a big corporate stop sign."
Speaking to Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports, Boras, the man who represents the likes of Texas Rangers slugger Prince Fielder, 2013 AL Cy Young winner Max Scherzer of the Detroit Tigers and Washington Nationals phenom Bryce Harper, places the blame on general manager Alex Anthopoulos's failure to dip into the free agent market on the shoulders of Jays' ownership, a group Boras deems "a successful and committed ownership that needs to give their baseball people financial flexibility."
