TORONTO — Blue Jays general manager Ross Atkins is preaching patience.
Atkins addressed reporters at Rogers Centre this morning, hours before Toronto hosted the Tampa Bay Rays this afternoon.
The 20-minute news conference in front of the home dugout was mainly focused on the Blue Jays’ disappointing 19-24 record.
Atkins says that although the results haven’t been there, he’s encouraged by the sense of urgency in Toronto’s clubhouse.
