The Blue Jays intend to remove Anthony Santander from their ALCS roster, report Mitch Bannon and Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. Manager John Schneider told reporters (including Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet) that Santander was dealing with back stiffness. The move is still pending approval from Major League Baseball and has not officially been announced by the team or the league.
Teams set their postseason rosters at the beginning of each series. They can only make changes mid-series in the event of an injury. That requires MLB to sign off to prevent teams from gaming the system by faking injuries. There’s no reason to doubt the league will approve this change, which would officially end Santander’s season. A player removed midway through a series is ineligible for the following series if his team advances, so Santander could not participate in the World Series if the Jays come back to beat the Mariners.
More to come.
