I heard on SportsNet that the MLBPA apparently pressured Barajas not to sign that contract with the Jays because it was for below market value. A guy who hit in the .250's with 11 home runs and 40 RBI playing in a hitter friendly park, and handling an overall mediocre staff was that underpaid at 3.1 million a year?
