I wonder if after Cespedes signed Houston just offered something the Jays wouldn't match. Seems odd shortly after his agent said the Blue Jays were showing him the most love that rumours are suggesting he could sign with the Astros as early as today.
If the money was similar you would think Edwin would choose to come back here. It will be interesting to see what the contract looks like. After the Cespedes deal his 4 years 80 million offer looks phenomenal. I thought if any free agent hitter could get 5 years it was Cespedes. The average annual seems about right though.
