Until Atkins is gone and the organization changes how they operate and treat their players I don't think anything is going to turn around. This is more about a dysfunctional organization then it is about players or a manager.
As long as Atkins, and perhaps to a certain extent Shaprio, are in charge I have no expectation this is going to get better. It's been obvious for 2 years now but Jays chose to ignore it and here we are. I wish I could be surprised but there's really no reason to be. The whole Berrios wildcard thing solidified it for me.
