Montero Flies North

The Blue Jays acquire Miguel Montero from the Cubs, the return to the Cubs to be decided at a later date.

The Cubs parted ways with Montero after the veteran catcher publicly called out Jake Arrieta for allowing seven stolen bases in a loss Tuesday to Washington, saying that the ace right-hander and the rest of Chicago’s pitchers “were slow to the plate.”

That did not sit well with the team.

Blue Jays catchers are hitting .163/.277/.283, so Montero should improve the Toronto’s offense.
