The Blue Jays had a solid trade deadline as they were big time sellers but that is not what fans were expecting when the season began.
Despite failing to do anything of any significance over the last 10 years, it seems like Ross Atkins has a secured position with the team next year.
Ross Atkins still has his job.
Which effectively means there is no standard for performance results.
After nearly a decade of mediocrity and ZERO playoff wins, he can keep apologizing until the cows come home.
Blue Jays fans in Toronto and all over the world deserve better.
Fans are completely discouraged that the organization holds no accountability since Atkins continues to run the team into the ground with no changes in sight.
Insider Shi David believes that only Mark Shapiro knows what will happen to Atkins in the future but it does not make much sense to have him make decisions at the draft and deadline if they plan on changing things over the off-season.
Behind-the-scenes murmurs earlier this month suggested a change was imminent, more recently that's shifted to him continuing on, but only Shapiro really knows and without any public comments tipping his thoughts, he has room to manoeuvre in either direction"
