Yeah, but it did work. And Tulo is under control until 2022. Revere is under control until 2018. So it's not like all the moves he made were rentals, even if he was 'going for it' he still brought in some players that are going to stick around for a little while.

The entire batting order could come back next season if the Jays want. Sign a starter or two and I'm not so sure this team won't be in the thick of things. I'd be more critical of AA if he brought in all pure rentals but he didn't. Shapiro better have some great moves up his sleeves are the entire Jays nation will turn on the organization......quickly.
