If you really want me to, I could go over a list of goals and objectives I would like to see done which would make me approve, and if JP does any of them, I would praise him.
What exactly has Vernon Wells done to get such money? He hits 30 Homers, not exactly a dime a dozen, but its common enough, not to warrent 18 million. If we are paying him the CF premium, than I suggest we stop. We have 2 capable CFs manning our corners (Johnson and Rios), who could move to CF, Rios for example has gold glove calibre defense.

Sorry just look at this thread, and every single piece of news results in you saying it's horrible.
On not re-signing Zaun: "
Looks like JP dropped the ball again.
Zaun, who would have re-upped during the season at a reduced rate is now being sought after pretty heavily by some other teams. Not shocking as he is one of the few catchers who can actually hit Right handed pitching with effiency."
Early in the offseason: "Well so far we've upgraded at DH, taken a major hit at catcher (as in don't have one), still don't have one of a 2B/SS (Adams isn't starting next year), lost our #3 pitcher and lost our Setup guy.
Chips better start falling soon, otherwise this has the makings of a disaster."
On the Jays lineup: "This is a digusting lineup. Absolutely no balance. We are so RH heavy it is amazing. Zaun/Overbay are the only ones who can bat LH on this team unless lind makes the jump.
We are going to be in some serious trouble with regards to splits."
On the possible signing of Meche "Rotoworld reports Jays have upped their offer to Meche to 4/40 million.
This is ugly. Very ugly."
"I also think JP is one of the worst GMs in the league too - his drafting record really doesn't impress me at all."
And so on. Sorry man its like a broken record. I just don't think JP can do anything to make you happy. You seem be waiting for any reason to crticize him.
