Guests:听Former Blue Jays Communications Director, current Niagara Ironbacks owner Mal Romanin
With spring training games underway, many Blue Jays fans are still having a hard time getting the taste of a rough winter out of their mouths. The failure to lock up Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and the Roki Sasaki debacle will be the biggest stories of the Jays鈥 off-season, and have just added to the fury of the fanbase that seems to be close to boiling over, if it hasn鈥檛 already. Mal Romanin, who was a member of the Jays鈥 communications team from the J.P. Ricciardi era through the 2015 resurgence and into the beginning of the Mark Shapiro-Ross Atkins regime, joins us to talk about how baseball鈥檚 public relations teams deal with crises, whether they鈥檙e generated by the front office or the players, and shares stories of some of the fires he had to try to help put out when he was with the team.
