With the debut of George Springer on Wednesday night, followed by the somewhat surprising demotion of Rowdy Tellez, the Blue Jays outfield group will need to be addressed. For the time being, Springer will be getting his at-bats as the designated hitter to take some stress off of that quad he appears to still be nursing but the Jays didn’t fork over $150 million for the three-time all-star to be their DH, he will be playing center field for this club shortly.
