Mark Shapiro is delusional if he thinks we've had lots of success in the last 5 years. Look at your total spend, look at your underwhelming farm system, and look at your playoff success.

It's unacceptable to put the word success around this team.

It's nauseating hearing this guy talk about the success the last 5 years. He has one of the highest payrolls in baseball, a decimated farm system, and yet any success they've had has lead to NO wins in the postseason. I knew he would say this but to hear him defend Atkins is stomach churning.

The Jays think they are the Leafs where you can put a bad product on the field and people will still show up. Leafs can get away with that as they are the Leafs and hockey is a religion in Canada.

The only way they get rid of Shatkins is by people not going to games and seeing the empty stadium might spur the owners into action. The problem with that is the Blue Jays are Canada's team so people all over Canada make it a vacation to see the Jays. This is not a say like the Rockies who suck and people from Florida, and Tennesee are not flocking to the Rockies games cause they are the only MLB team in the country.

Rogers is not serious about winning only hawking their products on TV and in the stadium. The Jays are a marketing arm of Rogers. I don't care how high the payroll is the owner doesn't care cause people are flocking to use cup holders in the new fancy seats lol. I won't be surprised if they cut payroll this offseason.

Guardians....no I mean Indians got better after the dynamic duo left Cleveland. Now they are perennial division winners and playoff contenders each year

Rosie Dimaio likely just lost her job. What a terrible question!
I don't know what she asked, but if she could lose her job for asking terrible questions, she would have been unemployed YEARS ago.

That was a Paul Godfrey policy.

Now, it is not a rule, it is a policy that most players aren't worth more than 5 years (Vlad and Bo should be exceptions).
Did Godfrey start it? Because it was absolutely a Paul Beeston policy when AA was GM.
