"Worst owners ever.
In my opinion, Rogers is the worst (major) sports franchise owner in this city's history, with the possible exception of Harold Ballard, though say what you want about Pal Hal, the man did have an unquenchable thirst to win. Rogers? Not.
Perhaps the Jays weren't interested in Prince Fielder. Whatever. What it is, though, is yet another big name free agent up for grabs, that the Jays didn't get. Just like Yu Darvish and the other guys they apparently wanted, but didn't get.
To win in Major League Baseball, which doesn't have a salary cap, you have to spend money, especially in the AL East. They don't spend enough. And please, no lectures about how Rogers has to be careful with their money. I don't understand that and never will understand that. Unless you're paid by Rogers, why should fans worry about how much money Rogers spends? Rogers has tons of money. Rogers is rich, RICH. Listen, if Rogers splashed out on a big-money free agent like a Prince Fielder or C.J. Wilson they wouldn't go out of business. They'd still be rolling in it."
