Yup, pretty sure the Conference's objective is to answer the media's questions about Romero.

It's more the message that Happ's #5 job is his for the foreseeable future. That was the more surprising part. For how bad Ricky has been, Happ is still not really that great...

If the Jays didn't do this extension and Happ blows up and has a great year, the Jays would have ended up paying only a little bit more and avoided all of the risk. I know its not my money and this is too minor of a deal to get worked up about but i absolutely hate it when teams go around guarantying money they don't have to, especially to pitchers.

After JA Happ extension, #BlueJays have roughly $109m committed to 13 players for 2014, or just over half roster. Happ due $5.2m next year
