Overall it shouldnt be too big a deal. The Jays have a lot of guys under control so they can stay competitive.
And that is the last I will say about that. Whatever happens I want to focus on now!
Go Jays Go!

There are ways around the term. If you put the big money up front with an opt out clause at year 3, the players more often than not are opting out of the contract because they can usually get the remaining term on the old contract for more money than what's left.
I too hope Price can better find his groove against the Royals. Although a lighter hitting contact type team like them could give him fits.
