Briefly

Blue Jays: Is there room for another hitter after signing Okamoto?
""We do feel good about our team. Additions at this point will start to cut away at playing time for players we feel are good major league pieces.""
""Their preference is to make Okamoto a super utility player." We've also seen Ponce say he's willing to start or pitch in relief. Hard to get guys to sign on without assurances of bigger roles, but evidently that changes when your org is in such great shape. Keep pushing."
""After landing Kazuma Okamoto, are the #BlueJays still pursuing another marquee off-season transaction?""
Toronto signed Kazuma Okamoto and the front office believes the roster is in strong shape. General Manager Ross Atkins said the team feels good and that further additions could reduce playing time for current major-league-caliber players. The organization prefers to deploy Okamoto as a super-utility option. Pitcher Ponce has indicated willingness to start or work in relief. Agents and players frequently seek assurances of larger roles before signing, but roster strength can change that calculus. The club intends to continue pursuing upgrades cautiously to avoid diminishing opportunities for existing contributors.
