    Key word above: hothead. I'm a Jays fan and was glad to see him leave our organization. Just could not stand his attitude and his mental blunders. Lots of talent, but the head of a four year old.

    Anyone know why he got released? They just re-signed him in the off-season to a one-year deal. Weird.

    Either way, I hope the Jays look past him while they wait on Devon Travis to return. Been there, done that.

    I am not sure, but why re-sign him this off-season and then release in spring training if they expected Moncada to play? There's more to the story I think.

    He’s still battling a leg injury (knee) apparently (even tho the CWS said it wasn’t because of that), but they want to give more time to Saladino, Sanchez, Garcia, and Davidson. Moncada will likely start in the minors and make his way up after the season starts, like Bryant had in his first season because of contract outcome (something like it doesn’t burn a yr if he plays less than X number of games).

    Lawrie was resigned to less than he made in 2016, and it was to have options in case of trades this off-season, including trading Frazier and Lawrie cover on 3B. No deal obviously happened with Frazier, and they got a potential all-star in Moncada to build around at 2B.
