Blue Jays: Freddy Galvis is a good option for the infield

The Blue Jays need to add a player who can be an everyday player and provide depth for Troy Tulowitzki and Devon Travis. In 2017, Ryan Goins and Darwin Barney replaced them, however their offensive contributions were minimal with OPS+ of 68 and 54 respectively. The Jays clearly need to improve the backup options and in fact replace the now free agent, Darwin Barney.

Freddy Galvis has been the Phillies’ everyday shortstop for the past three seasons. He has averaged an OPS+ of 80. Definitely an improvement over Darwin Barney and Ryan Goins.
