- We got a 38 year old knuckleballer with one good season and then signed him for 2 yrs at 20 mil. That was a disaster waiting to happen.
- We got Melky who was average at best and then caught caught with PEDs.
- Finally, we got the bulk of our guys from the Marlins. You know, that Marlins team who was expected to run through the league last season but finished last?
Ya i wasn't expecting much.
Jays have been a pretty solid team in a tough division...they add talents like Reyes, Buerhle, Johnson, Dickey, and Cabrera and you didn't expect atleast improvement. Doesn't surprise me tbh
