When Alex Anthopolous inherited the team, the Jays farm system was in disarray. They had talent on the roster, but just not enough to push them to the post-season in AA’s early years with the team.

AA utilized his prospect capital to acquire the talent necessary to create a window of opportunity. That window predictably shut at the end of 2016.
