Blue Jays Talk · Grading Jays' Deadline Moves + Ross Atkins Speaks to the Media · 4 Aug 2026 podcast

It really came down to the players and he took accountability for his part and so the other teammates too for, you know, the unfortunate so far results of the 26 season.

What are the spirits like today for the team?

Yeah, I think it's pretty good.

You know, obviously disappointing to see their teammates go, you know, some of them.

But I think they believe they're going to win tonight and tomorrow and the next day.

Win one day, you know, one pitch at a time, one game at a time, one series at a time.

And they're focused on that.

You really have been impressed by the positivity, the lack of finger pointing, and the focus on just getting better and a high level of accountability.

Thanks, everyone.

Excellent.

It was a hectic one, but it's always a pleasure to be with you and happy to kind of unpack, I don't know, some confusing day for your Toronto Blue Jays.

And it's something that teams will talk about heading into the deadline in part because they want to seem like they're not ruling anything out.

And of course, they're going to do their due diligence about everything and they're not going to take opportunities off the table.

They usually pay lip service to it, and then they don't actually do it.

And when the time comes, there's only so much time in the day.

They have things that they really need to do, which is whether you're a seller getting rid of those contracts or you're a buyer getting the players you need for a playoff push.

That ends up being the priority.

And being able to do both of them, it rarely comes together.

The Blue Jays were able to do it.

You couldn't go with whether they did it well or you like the moves that they made.
