There is no denying the Blue Jays are rebuilding while forging ahead with the youth movement. The brain trust has already nearly ridden themselves of every player on their roster that was near or on the backside of thirty.

The first baseman is not going to command a considerable raise over the $8 million he is currently earning and he will be lucky to secure a two-year pact on the open market.
