MLB insider Bob Nightengale reported last night he feels that a few GMs in the league are at serious risk of losing their job if they do not make the playoffs.
Nightengale named multiple GMs including Padres AJ Preller, Giants Farhan Zaidi and of course the Blue Jays Ross Atkins. He added that out of the 3, Atkins is by far the one that is in the most dangers.
From Bob Nightengale:
Fans are happy to hear this news as many are worried that even if the Blue Jays do not make the playoffs, Atkins will remain the GM or at least within the organization.
Hopefully, if the Blue Jays do not make the playoffs, which seems very likely at this point, the front-office will be forced to fire Atkins.
