Matt Chapman is a name we’ve been hearing around camp for weeks. He is a perfect solution to third for the ground ball inducing, #BlueJays rotation. He plays deep, his range will assist Bichette, the arm helps VGJ play 1B too. Great move.

A 29-year old, Matt Gage lived the dream. After 8-years and nearly 200 game in the minors, in indy-ball, then pitching in Mexico - it finally happened. He got a perfect 9th, with his first two Big League strikeouts. Big league debuts, and their stories are cool. #bluejays
