It's not just Canada that loves Bautista, he has been widely regarded as one of the best in the game in the U.S. for the last 3 seasons as well.
I personally don't think there needs to be soul searching for why the team sucks.
It's called pitching.
Switch Cano and Bautista and Seattle is probably still just as good because they have this guy named Felix, this other guy named Hisashi, plus this other guy named Chris Young.
All three have better stats then any one pitcher on the Blue Jays.
Bautista had a slightly down season this year with his bat, injuries have hurt him, but the issues with the Bluejays begin and end with pitching.
