HOUSTON - An erroneous report saying Michael Brantley had agreed to a contract with the Toronto Blue Jays had the outfielder fielding goodbye texts from his Houston Astros teammates most of Wednesday morning. “There were a lot of a lot of mixed emotions, obviously, in a small timeframe,“ Brantley said Monday. Brantley hit .300 with five homers and 22 RBIs in 46 games in last year’s pandemic-shortened season. Brantley and Springer are close friends and he said he’ll miss playing with the centre fielder next season. But even more, it does real great thing for our clubhouse.”Loading... Loading... Loading...
