The expectation is that Navarro won't be with the Blue Jays when Spring Training officially opens on Feb. 21, but there's no guarantee that will be the case. Toronto has been shopping Navarro ever since Alex Anthopoulos signed Martin to a five-year contract worth $82 million, but so far a suitable trade offer has not surfaced. Ideally, the Blue Jays would acquire some bullpen help for their former starting catcher, but if that doesn't happen, then it's possible Navarro will remain in Toronto. That wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing because Navarro could receive some at-bats at DH while also providing a more than suitable backup option to Martin behind the plate.
