Jose Bautista, impending free agent, has spoken, and you have to admire his candidness about a possible contract extension with the Toronto Blue Jays: "I did not go to them. They asked me a question, 'What would it take to get it done?' and I gave them an answer. ... I felt like for this process to go down smoothly there didn't need to be any time wasted and efforts wasted for either party. If this is going to happen, they should know what it takes, and I told them the number because they asked me.
