<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->"We're done," Ricciardi said. "We won't be spending any money."
Earlier this week, Ricciardi mentioned free-agents Orlando Hudson and Jason Giambi in an online report, and the Blue Jays were involved with free-agent shortstop Rafael Furcal (re-signed by the Dodgers) earlier this month.
Ricciardi also indicated that the Jays won't be involved with any high-profile free-agent arms. Toronto will continue to consider reclamation project-type pitchers.
"We won't be in on anyone who's going to cost any money," Ricciardi said. "This is going to be a year where a lot of our kids are going to get exposure. That's going to be a fun thing, to see how some of these kids develop."
Ricciardi did note that the Jays continue to talk to free-agent Michael Barrett, witht he hope of signing the catcher to a Minor League deal.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
