The Jays window to compete is open now, the owner is the wealthiest in MLB, the market is large, their top draft picks are protected... there is no reason for the Jays to be trotting out a AAAA guy at 2B & contemplating filling a starting spot with one of two guys fresh off TJ surgery or another with zero experience above double A ball while refusing to put in what looks like market value offers on guys that ranked as top 40 pitchers last year and/or bids on quality MIFs. No reason except that ownership refuses to authorize the expenditure.
The Jays look like an organization with no direction... no long-term plan, nor any will to invest in the now.

I agreed with walking away on JJ, and Rajai who is now a 5M/year player....but with the potential of the offense and the bullpen in place, why didn't they go take another kick at the can?
why go 150 mils deep for this roster, either add to it, or burn it down. don't stay in this place.
