DUNEDIN, Fla. -- One day after Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Josh Donaldson shut down contract negotiations, general manager Ross Atkins addressed the media at Florida Auto Exchange Stadium.
"I think it is 'yet,'" Atkins said. "We haven't reached a deal yet."
The 2015 American League Most Valuable Player Award winner is looking for a long-term extension with the team after batting .270/.385/.559 with 33 home runs and 78 RBIs, despite being limited to just 113 games due to a right calf injury.
"We're not in the same type of area, the same ballpark, to make a discussion moving forward," Donaldson told reporters on Monday.
