'It’s weird to not know. At this point, just have to roll with the punches and be flexible.” As the BlueJays work to determine where they'll play home games this season, more challenges, frustrations and surprises lie ahead. (via ShiDavidi)
Given all that, a modified quarantine plan at Rogers Centre remains the path of least resistance for the Blue Jays, even given the hardships being locked in a hotel would cause on players.
“Definitely I’m a little more informed now than I was, say a week ago,” Shaw said of the meetings with Shapiro and Atkins. “I kind of know what the deal is going forward, I know that they’re still working with the government to get clearance for the regular season. Coming up here I don’t think anyone thought that we could possibly be in here for three months. Everything is kind of happening on the fly right now and we’re going to have to adjust accordingly.
That the Blue Jays were facing a full summer of quarantine was the latest blow, and Shaw admitted to “a little bit of frustration” when he came to understand that more lockdown was in store if the team is in Toronto for the regular season. He had hoped to live in the rental condo a block from the ballpark that he paid for, hoped to experience some of the city, hoped to do simple things like take a walk by the lake to clear his mind.
