The four-time All-Star said he and the Blue Jays were never close in negotiations, per Matheson.

could be a negotiation tactic. what is close? is he going to say 5 million is close 50 million close?

Jays could still revisit and up their price. Mid season you offer him slightly more than what he asked? Depends on the ill will.

I am not optimistic though he is done. I am mad. He is my guy.
