Matt Chapman, Whit Merrifield and Jordan Hicks left in free agency. Did the Toronto Blue Jays Fumble

The Toronto Blue Jays are 31 games into the season. We decided to take a look at players the Blue Jays decided to let go this offseason and compared them to players that are in the lineup in 2024. We exchanged: Matt Chapman, Whit Merrifield, Jordan Hicks, and Brandon Belt for IKF, and Justin Turner, but this allowed for players like Davis Schneider and Ernie Clement to see the field more often in 2024. We compare these players' starts to the season, discussing which decisions we agree and disagree with through the first month of the season.

George Springer has been good this season, but why? Carter does a deep dive into George Springer's struggles, finding the root cause of Springer's slow start to the season. Based on what you have seen from Springer, what does he need to do better this season? In this episode, Brayden breaks down the fanatic fiasco, as multiple organizations are trying to throw the blame on one another. Who do you think is in the wrong in this Fanatics Fiasco?
