There is no question the Toronto environment (fans etc) has an incredible effect on people. It's just so tough. One thing I'd hate for sure is having to go through customs 81 more times + a year.

Either way, I do think the Jays have a lot to offer (and not just money) for Price going forward. Most of their key pieces are locked up and under control for a few more years so this may not just be a "one and done" year for the Jays.
Oh ya, he’ll get paid big. But when they acquired him I was thinking the Jays had to blow the barn doors open when it came to payday to even have him thinking about resigning with the Jays. So if he was looking for somewhere in the 30mill/yr deal, I was thinking the Jays had to go 35-40mill/yr. Now I’m thinking they can go somewhere closer to what the other teams will offer him.
Per customs, I think they go through a private customs where it’s just the team stepping through metal detectors. I can’t see them having a very tough time at airports.
