Just like anything you have to spend money to make money, I like the GM of the Blue Jays he isnt afraid to spend $, and especially when you are in a division with Yankees and Red Sox you need to spend $ to stay competative.

True about the Canadian market, but what GM doesn't like to spend money? If they have it, they'll spend it. The good ones spend it in the right place. Riccardi is definitely one of the best at recognizing raw, undeveloped talent. But Jays fans should be thankful the owners opened their wallets, or Riccardi wouldn't have any money to spend.
