Blue Jays' Ernie Clement: Inks minors deal with Toronto

Clement signed a minor-league contract Tuesday with the Blue Jays which includes an invitation to major-league spring training.

Clement struggled to attract interest all winter after batting just .184/.243/.209 over 179 major-league plate appearances last season between the Guardians and Athletics. The soon-to-be 27-year-old will function as organizational infield depth for Toronto heading into the 2023 campaign. He has also played some corner outfield.
