If they take this route of signing people because they don't have to give them term, this will ensure the Jays don't win another championship in the foresable future , and honestly I half expect that they will sign Beltran to fill Jose's spot in RF.
Who cares if we have to sign someone for 5 years? The time to win is now. This team has ridiculous revenue across an entire country even if they aren't doing well at the gate, and they've led the AL in attendance since the day they acquired Price. I don't expect to spend like the Yankees and Red Sox, but for christ sakes, sign an appropriate player to fill a need and not worry about having to hand out a 5 year contract.
