One of the most memorable baseball phrases from my childhood was, “if you build it, they will come”, which was from a famous scene in “Field Of Dreams”, one of the greatest movies of all-time, if you’re asking me.
That same phrase has been tossed around in regards to the Toronto Blue Jays over the years, often when it comes to investing in the roster. However, the philosophy has occasionally been reversed around this team, with more of an idea that ownership would invest more money in a winning product, and one that was consistently drawing fans to the ballpark.
