The Toronto Maple Leafs have yet to exorcise their demons by hoisting a Stanley Cup, but that doesn’t seem to have deterred the city’s Major League Baseball team from following their blueprint for building a contender.
The Toronto Blue Jays rumored pursuit of sensational 2-time MVP and dual-threat Shohei Ohtani, demonstrates their willingness to follow the roster-building path of the Leafs.
