I have always said there is close zero chance Jerry ever spends significant money on a reliever but this really nails the massive gap between the Blue Jays and M's philosophies. BJ come one win from a WS title and go out and spend almost $250M on a submarine low K rate reliever and a barely above average starter. M's just trying to run it back and went 1/2 so far and added a project reliever and a BU catcher that can't hit.

Starting to feel like a repeat of the 2023-2024 Offseason.

Think about it, Toronto’s winning run in that 7th game had Already crossed home plate, but for the Catch of All Time by a backup named Pages!

Good thing the fans didn’t have their blood pressure checked when the ball was still in the air!
