The Toronto Blue Jays say payroll will not be an issue in 2007 if it means getting the missing piece to a championship puzzle.
Blue Jays president Paul Godfrey tells the Globe and Mail he's confident team owner Ted Rogers would approve any payroll expenditure for the right player.
"Let's just say that I would have no problem saying to Ted, 'Here it is, July 10, the all-star break - whatever - the team is in contention for the AL East or the wild-card spot and we need to get this missing piece," he tells the newspaper.
