Blue Jays Morning Brew: Petit, Graterol, Saltalamacchia

The Blue Jays were active on Monday, adding two minor-league depth pieces in catcher Juan Graterol and infielder Gregorio Petit.

IF Gregorio Petit

Profile: Petit’s addition is similar to those of Alexi Casilla, David Adams, and Jio Mier prior to the 2016 season. All three saw steady time with the triple-A Buffalo Bisons, and given Petit’s defensive flexibility, he will offer depth at multiple positions. Petit has a career .643 OPS at the MLB level and appeared in 89 games with the Angels last season, but that was more a product of a poor Los Angeles team than Petit forcing his way on to the roster.
