As good a time as any to remind that the A's have a quarter of the Jays payroll.

"let's bring up Spencer Horowitz"

"Where should we play him?"

"Oh, we won't. Let's put Justin Turner in the 2 hole"

I just don't understand the Jays, they designate Biggio. A utility guy who can play multiple positions etc. He can run, etc.

I sure hope another team, picks him up

Keep Daniel Vogelbach who can not play any position, might be slower than Kirk, and is only a DH

Wow

It's only a matter of time until Vogelbach is gone too.

Yep, its a weird decision.... Vogelbach is just not an roster player the Jays should be keeping.

Maybe Biggio asked to be let go and see if he can get a fresh start somewhere

His utility and moderate speed makes him a much better bench player then Vogs

It’s makes no sense but these Jays decisions seldom do

Neither is Biggio though IMO

It's time to move on, they have cheaper options with potential for more upside in AAA

He has the lowest exit velocity in the majors. Versatility only means something if you don’t suck which he does. I agree Vogelbach isn’t long for the team either, but I can see holding on to the one who can do damage with a bat.

He just didn't want to go back to AAA. Because he has 5 years of service time he's allowed to refuse a demotion which is his right.
