In his role, Shapiro oversees Baseball Operations, Business Operations including Rogers Centre’s concerts and events business, and is a representative of the Blue Jays at the league ownership level.
During his tenure, Shapiro has modernized the franchise to deliver for fans in both wins and experiences. This includes five postseason appearances, including reaching the World Series in 2025, leading the revitalization of the fan experience with the extensive renovations to Rogers Centre, and creating an industry-leading training facility in Dunedin, FL.
