I don't know if I blame them for that though, if you're the Jays it's all you can do.
You're a Canadian team in a sport that is full of American or Latin players, you're going to have a hard time attracting free agents.
And Baseball is also a sport where it's hard to build via the draft with how the draft works and free agency rules.
So all they can do is identify guys they want, be willing to pay them, and hope that every once in a while one of the free agents ends up choosing them.
