Adding promising depth pieces to a contending roster is often the key to long-term sustainable success. For the Toronto Blue Jays, they did just that with an intriguing recent signing. The Blue Jays managed to add former Detroit Tigers prospect Carlos Mendoza on a minor league deal to serve as valuable positional player depth in the organization.
Despite having not being ranked among the top 30 prospects in the Tigers’ farm system during the past few years, Mendoza has always been an interesting prospect with high upside due to his ability to play multiple positions in the field.
