I think the story has the wrong playerl. There was a post on the SN website by someone who said this:
"I would think with Redmond leaving SN, Estrada will turn things around next season".
Combine this comment with Estrada telling the media he had non baseball, personal issues during his slump and that Estrada and Redmond were in Saskatoon together for a bit in Feb for some event, I think it's Estrada.
Wouldn't be surprised if Shapiro and Atkins made sure Jackie Redmond was shipped out of Toronto.
