Really good article about the slow off-season for the Jays so far.

This off-season, they have spent $55 million on Kendrys Morales and Steve Pearce, which is mostly significant because it isn’t $200 million on Bautista and Encarnacion, otherwise known as the thing Blue Jays fans allowed themselves to dream about in quiet moments. There is certainly a case against signing either slugger to giant multi-year deals, but it remains to be seen what kind of a roster the Blue Jays would have without them. Morales and Pearce are the kind of veterans who could be valuable pieces to a contending team, but neither signals a wholesale commitment to remaining in contention.
