Yep, they had a clear plan in place mid summer, Rogers did not think these moves would turn into an ALDS championship and are choosing to move forward like none of this success actually happened.

This whole thing is very Rogers. Rogers is like the Stephan Harper of companies. Everything they do really annoys you, and they start to deconstruct and make embarrassing changes to the team/network/country you love, and do so against the opinion of the people.
