Holy f*** dude, learn to seperate the two points I was trying to make. Point 1 was that the Blue Jays, as a franchise located in Toronto, has a history of attracting good free agents despite the inferiority complex some fellow Canadians want us all to have.
Point 2 was that all evidence points to Rogers not being cheap since the Beeston/AA era.
As far as the list being very long, if the Blue Jays signed more than 3% of notable free agents over the years, they have signed an above average amount compared to the other 29 teams in the league.
Also, your baseball card is worth about a penny in mint condition. Go suck a lemon Ducey.
