MLB in brief: Isiah Kiner-Falefa happy to be in Toronto | Five-man rotation in Toronto

Isiah Kiner-Falefa happy to be in Toronto

He's even ready to play catcher, if need be.

Just caught up with IKF in Jays clubhouse. To say he's excited to be back & ready to contribute would be an understatement. In fact, IKF told @DannySpxp, @ArdenZwelling & me that he's offered Jays to don catching gear again so he's ready if needed.
