The offseason checklist has only just begin for Ross Atkins and Mark Shapiro, despite the Blue Jays making one significant pick up by trading for Aledmys Diaz last week. The trade gives the Blue Jays an improvement in their middle infield depth, which was especially important after they decided not to tender a contract to long time veteran, Ryan Goins.
Which is likely why Atkins told reporters at the Toronto chapter of the Baseball Writers of America gathering on Wednesday, that the Blue Jays will still look to add to their keystone depth, especially because of the uncertain health forecast around both Troy Tulowitzki, and Devon Travis.
