Sometimes, silence can be deafening. And after several days without hearing from the Blue Jays front office after Alex Anthopoulos' sudden and unexpected departure, people began to wonder.
People began to worry and fret whether this team was in trouble after one of its brightest employees decided to up and leave out of nowhere. The Jays' GM walked away after the club put forth one of its best single-season efforts in over 20 years.
But today, the silence came to an end. Mark Shapiro officially introduced himself as the brand new president and CEO of the Toronto Blue Jays.
