Lets not forget that this is a guy that the Jay coaching staff (and some of the fan base) had lost some faith in during the playoffs. Sure they all said all the right things, but when it was said and done they had more faith in Stroman than they did in Price.
Fine by me they decided not to sign Price. Not fine by me that they haven't looked elsewhere or done a goddamn thing to address their bullpen issue. There's one thing to argue Price was asking way too much and that there's better ways of using that money to improve, and then there's not offering on your ace pitcher who wants to resign and doing absolutely nothing to fill other holes with at least some of the money you didn't spend on resigning him.
