The Blue Jays are back in the news cycle and, unlike the last couple years, this time it’s for doing something positive. The four-year deal worth $80 million (all dollars U.S.) with veteran left-hander Hyun-Jin Ryu represents a major coup for the front office. More important, for the first time in at least two years, it proves the Blue Jays are actively trying to win. By signing Ryu, Atkins is doubling down on his young roster. The Blue Jays likely would be content to get a similar return to the one they got from J.A.
