Today was a huge day for Blue Jays media and Blue Jays fans. Ross Atkins and Mark Shapiro took the stand to answer questions about the underwhelming 2024 baseball season. Reporters asked questions about many facets of the Blue Jays management team and were eager to gather answers about the pair's thoughts and feelings about this season, and their plans for the future and beyond. In this episode, we focus on two main ideas from these interviews, breaking down the responses from Mark Shapiro and how his insights set up the team for the retooling that is supposed to take place this offseason. To end things off, we talk about the upsets in the AL and answer a question about who the biggest frauds in the AL East truly are.
