We’ll call Wednesday the Michael Brantley day in baseball, because it was a bit tumultuous there for a couple hours. At first, it had been reported that Brantley was heading to Toronto right after his former teammate, George Springer, had signed there. It seemed like the Jays were pushing all in. And then they refuted the report, and quickly every reported who had broken that news was retracting. And then the real news came out, indicating that Brantley had instead signed back in Houston on a two-year deal worth $32 million.
