In the end there is no lost opportunity by going after names like Soto, or Burnes

Gimenez was likely plan A, big name hitters are the area that's lacking
Did they miss out, who knows,
Is this a playoff caliber roster, my guess its not.
Why waste time and effort on a player like Soto, where the player had zero intentions to sign. Where is the benefit,
My guess the agent simply used the Jays to push up the deals,
Until the Jays can sign Vladdy, the other big name players won't sign.
Its too risky, sign with the Jays, Vladdy leaves, re-tool starts.
