Blue Jays: Eric Sogard’s impact on future roster decisions

Eric Sogard was signed by the Toronto Blue Jays this past offseason to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training for the 2019 season. While many thought this was a small roster move, I don’t think anybody expected the season Sogard would be having for the Blue Jays.

When spring training was over, Sogard was optioned to the Buffalo Bisons as he had lost the bench role on the major league club to Richard Urena. Sogard had a pretty average spring, slashing .239/.362/.370 and spending most of his time at almost all of the infield positions except for 1B.
