Back “in the day”, international free agents were a Blue Jays strength. The late Epy Guerrero, the Jays’ Chief Latin American Scout from 1978 to 1995, was known as “El supereschucha” (Superscout) in the Dominican Republic. He helped found the first Baseball Academy in that country in 1973, and is credited with the hiring and drafting of over 50 major league players and identifying many more (My favourite Epy story is when he found a hot young Dominican pitcher and urged the Jays to sign him. But he was overruled, and Pedro Martinez was signed as an amateur free agent by the Dodgers instead).
Blue Jays should be more aggressive on international market
