Blue Jays' Ezequiel Carrera: Signs deal with Blue Jays

Carrera signed a one-year, $1.9 million contract with the Blue Jays on Thursday to avoid arbitration, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.

Analysis:

Carrera appeared in a career-high 131 games in 2017 (including 71 starts), piecing together the best offensive season of his seven-year MLB career. The outfielder slashed .282/.356/.408 and stole 10 bags on the year. He'll likely be utilized as a fourth outfielder heading into 2018, thus limiting his overall fantasy potential. He won't derive much standard value and looks to be just an AL-only option at this time.
