A 30th round pick of the Blue Jays in 2013, Tellez was lured away from the University of Southern California by a record over-slot bonus.
Last season with the Dunedin Blue Jays and Lansing Lugnuts, the left-hander posted a slash line of .289 / .347 / 454 with 14 home runs and 77 RBI. He’s also worked to improve his defence at first base, helping him to maintain some level of roster flexibility going forward.
