Solarte a free agent after being non-tendered
TORONTO -- Yangervis Solarte's time with the Blue Jays has come to an end after the fifth-year infielder was non-tendered Friday night.
Teams had until 8 p.m. ET to tender non-guaranteed contracts to its arbitration-eligible players. Nine players received offers, but Solarte did not, which means he has been removed from Toronto's 40-man roster and becomes a free agent.
Kevin Pillar, Joe Biagini and Devon Travis were considered by some as possible non-tender candidates, but all three received tenders. So did Ken Giles, Ryan Tepera, Randal Grichuk, Brandon Drury, Marcus Stroman and Aaron Sanchez.
