Blue Jays GM Ross Atkins made a good decision on June 25th, signing second baseman Gabriel Cancel as he has been on fire in Triple-A so far.

In his first 7 games with the Bisons, Cancel has an impressive 5 homeruns in 7 games and has a 1.708 OPS in Triple-A right now.
Gabriel Cancel figured SOMETHING out in Indy ball this season, he hit at a 50 homer/90 steal (!!!) pace before signing with the Jays and now has a cool 1.708 OPS with Buffalo in 7 games.

Might as well give him a shot at this point.
While this is still a small sample size, clearly the former Royals prospect has developed quite a bit during his time in independent ball and is taking full advantage of his most recent opportunity with the Blue Jays.
