Joey Votto on why he describes himself as a #BlueJays minor-leaguer. “I’m on a minor-league contract ... so not only is that my attitude, but that's the reality of the scenario. So the idea that I'm going to come in & presume anything is a disconnect from reality."
Joey Votto says he called Ross Atkins recently to ask about joining Blue Jays on non-roster deal. Was on a plane the next day and is now in camp "to basically try out." Votto describes himself as "a minor-league player with an unknown number trying my very best to make a team."
