Another free agent name disappears... Looking like it will be a thin class this year

wow didn't expect that. I guess there wasn't enough interest from other teams for GTJ.

Maybe he has been promised playing time and he thinks he can use that time to win a big contract next year.

Reported now, he wants to stay in Toronto and hoping to settle a long term contract in the future.
