#BlueJays announce they've assigned these players back to Minor League camp:
RHP Andrew Bash C Phil Clarke RHP Lazaro Estrada INF Josh Kasevich RHP Eric Pardinho INF Riley Tirotta
The two most surprising players sent down to the minors are Pardinho and Estrada who both were expected to at least make it until the final rounds of cuts as they were solid last season in the minors.
On the other hand, the least surprising is Kasevich since manager John Schneider stated yesterday that he would be out with an injury for some time.
