One of the biggest questions of the off-season for the Blue Jays has been who would start in centre field in 2020. On Friday, Ross Atkins may have already given us the answer before his team has played their first Grapefruit League game.
When asked about the outfield picture, the Blue Jays’ GM mentioned that he envisions Randal Grichuk being the primary centre fielder, a position the 28-year-old played for 56 games in 2019. That decision is ultimately up to Charlie Montoyo as the club’s manager, but I’m sure he’s talked about the subject with Atkins if the latter is discussing it publicly with the media.
