Blue Jays outfielder Anthony Santander wanted to return to the Orioles in free agency but he said they made an offer “we didn’t like.”

Between an analytical approach to hitting, experience in the middle of the order and ability to provide power from both sides of the plate, Anthony Santander offers a too-often punchless Blue Jays lineup a lot of what it’s been missing.

The Orioles made a three-year contract offer to Anthony Santander, apparently last month some time before he signed with the Blue Jays. That’s according to Santander himself, who spoke to The Baltimore Sun’s Matt Weyrich for an article that published today.
