Montoyo set for 1st holiday season as manager

TORONTO -- The holiday season will feel a little more special for the Montoyo family this year as Charlie Montoyo spends his first Christmas as a Major League manager.

Montoyo was named as John Gibbons' replacement in late October, and he's been spending the last two months preparing for his first season in Toronto's dugout. Before the heavy lifting begins, Montoyo has one last opportunity to enjoy a quiet holiday season with his family in Tucson, Ariz.

During a recent stop at Major League Baseball's Winter Meetings in Las Vegas, Montoyo took time to share some of his Christmas traditions with MLB.
