Sunday brought a merciful end to a difficult 2018 season for the Toronto Blue Jays, and one that saw them lose their second straight to Tampa Bay, dropping their record to 73-89 on the season.
After a second consecutive disappointing year we already know the Blue Jays will move on from John Gibbons as their manager, and that more change isn’t likely far behind. There are some expiring contracts, arbitration cases, and a crowded 40 man roster to figure out before baseball gets rolling again next spring. There is a lot of work to do.
At times like these, I often imagine putting myself in the shoes of a team president to try to imagine what their role looks like.
