The season that was: Davis Schneider

Davis Schneider was called up in early August 2023 and started amazing, going 9 for 13 with 2 home runs in his first three games. After that, he was up and down from there. 2024 did not go well, he hit .191/.282/.343. I doubted that he would make the team in 2025. But then he […]

Mark Shapiro Signs For Five More Years

Not a surprise, after the Jays came within a couple of inches of winning the World Series, but the Jays (or I guess Rogers signed) signed Mark Shapiro for five more years, which would have him in the job for 15 years.
