On Sunday the Blue Jays had to make the unfortunate decision to send Lourdes Gurriel Jr. back to Triple-A Buffalo after he struggled defensively once again. After a throwing error on a routine play at second base for the second consecutive game, Charlie Montoyo even made the choice to remove him from the game immediately and replace him with Alen Hanson at second.
The Blue Jays are hoping that a short stay in Triple-A will be the kind of confidence boost that their talented 25-year-old needs, as he looks pretty lost in the big leagues right now.
