Toronto Blue Jays rookie Rowdy Tellez may end up with a lot more playing time in the coming weeks as the brain trust look to move out veterans in search of younger talent before the trade deadline.
However, has Tellez showed enough to be cast as the first basemen of the future? Internally the Blue Jays do not have many options on the farm other than Ryan Noda who is ranked as the 20th best prospect organizationally.
Could Tellez be a placeholder until Vladimir Guerrero Jr. finally makes the inevitable switch on the corners?
