Maddox Latta has signed a free agent contract with the Toronto Blue Jays!
Latta was suppose to transfer to Texas A&M next season but it looks like he chose to go pro instead and will now begin his career with the Blue Jays.
According to reports, the Blue Jays got a seriously skilled shortstop in Latta who won the Big West Defensive player of the year with Fullerton and is able to handle multiple positions around the infield.
#Bluejays pick up Maddox Latta as a UDFA. Big West Defensive POY with a steady glove and .977 fielding %. Can move around the infield, solid depth piece with real instincts. @BlueJays #LightsUpLetsGo
While fans will likely not see Latta for a few years in the majors, this seems to be like a great signing for Toronto.
