The Toronto Blue Jays have made significant moves this off-season, acquiring infielder Andres Gimenez from the Cleveland Guardians and re-signing veteran reliever Yimi Garcia. General manager Ross Atkins confirmed these transactions, with Spencer Horowitz and Nick Mitchell heading to Cleveland as part of the deal.
Gimenez, a former all-star, had a standout 2022 season but has struggled recently at the plate. Despite his batting challenges, he is known for his exceptional defensive skills and has a long-term contract through 2029. His role with the Blue Jays remains to be determined, especially with rookie Will Wagner also in the mix.
