It’s unfortunate that it looks like Anthony Alford’s tenure with the Blue Jays is over, but it’s also a reminder of the volatile nature of prospects.
Before I even begin, I’d like to unequivocally state that I wish Anthony Alford well, and I still think he could become a solid big leaguer if he’s given the right opportunity.
