Blue Jays could just hit Josh Donaldson in leadoff spot

Sometimes we just make things too complicated. The Toronto Blue Jays don't have a prototypical leadoff hitter on the team, so manager John Gibbons said Friday the job will go to Kevin Pillar or Michael Saunders, neither of whom is particularly well suited to the role.

Pillar spent most of 2015 hitting seventh or eighth and produced a .278/.314/.399 batting line.
