Kevin Pillar traded from Blue Jays to Giants

The Toronto Blue Jays have made some moves to rebuild their roster over the past several months, and the latest is trading away veteran outfielder Kevin Pillar.

On Tuesday, the Blue Jays announced that they have traded Pillar to the San Francisco Giants in exchange for three players.

Pillar is off to a slow start with just one hit in 16 at-bats this season. He’s a career .260 hitter who can provide some pop, as he hit 15 home runs in 2018 and 16 the year before. He should give the Giants some solid outfield depth at an inexpensive price.
