Just for that, I'm more than happy that they're gone. Add that to the 2nd rounder that they get when Lilly signs and another 2 1sts when Molina Signs and I think the Jays are going to be doing a jig come june.
That's all well and good but the Jays don't have the best drafting record under their current management regime.

It's too bad the Cat won't be back but the Jays can take that money (and perhaps the $$$ from not having Zaun and Molina any more, presumably) to give Wells an extension and/or hopefully get Lilly signed again. We'll see.
