Blue Jays trade deadline report: Ideal suitor with familiar ties emerges
The Blue Jays former general manager Alex Anthopoulos is emerging as a candidate to return to the team as general manager.
Merrill Kelly Responds to Rafael Devers Trade
Both Mark Shapiro and Ross Atkins have contracts expiring with the Toronto Blue Jays, and they should consider whether or not they should resign or let go of them.
Contingent on what moves they make at the MLB Trade Deadline, we could see new management in the Blue Jays’ future. While things are working out accordingly for the Blue Jays this season, an Alex Anthopoulos return wouldn’t be off the table.
Also, if the team succeeds and decides it needs to go in a new direction with leadership. Simultaneously taking into consideration that Anthopoulos would benefit from a new change with his current situation with the Braves.
Mark Shapiro’s contract ends after the 2025 season, and that means Ross is too. Atkins returning in the 2025 season was a surprise to fans considering the disappointing season the Blue Jays had last season.
But aside from the obvious success have placed themselves with as they are second in the AL East and demonstrating comeback success. But the Blue Jays may want to consider cutting ties with both Atkins and Shapiro at the end of the Blue Jays season, depending on how they perform once we hit the 2025 All-Star break.
