I see a Jays roster looking worse then it did a year ago, coming off a season that was a boring let down, with clear deficiencies that not only weren't addressed but were in fact effectively doubled-down on... I think the Jays front office did an epic fail this offseason.
But I "don't know the full details" so I guess I have to shut up and just go "rah rah team!".

Yeah, why not?
What is bitching about it going to do?
And again, other than Ohtani (who they pulled out all the stops to try and sign), there wasn't a single difference maker on the market who didn't come with boat loads of risk involved.
So people whine about the Jays not doing anything, but can't provide a decent example of what they should have done instead of "nothing"
I'd imagine that if the Jays had forked out a massive contract to Bellinger and he would have turned back into a pumpkin, the same people would be the first in line wanting Atkins head on a stick for giving out such a risky deal.
The Jays need their star players to be star players, and that's where we are at. Vlad, Bo, Springer Kirk....these guys need to lead the way. Bo was the only one who got the job done last year, and even he was lacking. That's the answer, not forking out hundreds of millions of dollars to players like Bellinger and Chapman.
