The Jays haven’t been able to find a real franchise shortstop since Tony Fernandez. In fact, I would classify him as the only franchise shortstop Toronto has had. But fear no more, for the Jays have stacked their system with future shortstops. Maybe even a little overkill, but that’s ok. Let me tell you about these future infielders.
Gurriel has already seen some playing time in the MLB and to a good amount of success. He is a common name among Blue Jays fans, being seen as Troy Tulowitzki‘s replacement from his never-ending injuries.
