Jamie Moyer is still fighting for a spot on the Rockies? pitching staff, but the other elderly gentleman in spring training, 44-year-old Omar Vizquel, has secured a place on the Blue Jays? bench for Opening Day.
Toronto made it official today and also optioned his utility man competition, Mike McCoy, to Triple-A.
Vizquel no longer has the range to play shortstop regularly and hit just .251 with a .287 on-base percentage and .305 slugging percentage in 58 games for the White Sox last season, but obviously the Blue Jays aren?t keeping him solely for his on-field production at this point.
He signed a minor-league deal in January and this will be his 24th season in the majors.
