The Toronto Blue Jays had another somewhat disappointing off-season despite signing some solid players like Max Scherzer and Anthony Santander, they failed repeatedly on trying to bring in bigger names.
The Blue Jays off-season was filled with strikeouts as they tried to land plenty of top tier talent such as Juan Soto but Atkins failed to convince these players to come to Toronto despite having the funds to sign them.
Fans want Ross Atkins fired after another disappointing off-season for the Blue Jays
The Blue Jays had an incredibly slow start to the off-season but did end up picking up the pace in which they signed Max Scherzer and Anthony Santander but failed to make any truly massive moves.
After a relatively slow start, the Jays made some potentially impactful headway - notably the additions of slugging outfielder Anthony Santander and future Hall of Fame starter Max Scherzer. -Longley
The fans are fed up with the Blue Jays plans to make moves on massive names in free agency and despite having the money to land these players, Atkins continuously fails to land them in Toronto.
While the fan base is increasingly frustrated with losing out on the biggest names despite being in the big-money hunt, Atkins said the key is to move on to the next task as quickly as possible. -Longley
Atkins has stated that he is confident with the group of players that the team was able to add this off-season and while it is definitely a step up from last year, there is no denying that it was a let down of a winter after coming close to signing multiple superstars.
«We'll see, but we're very confident that this is a good group of players that we look forward to gelling and look forward to winning a lot of baseball.» -Atkins
Fans frustration with Atkins clearly does not stem from just this off-season but from multiple winters filled with mistakes but ownership seems to always be willing to give him one more chance.
