Jays contacted Bobby Cox about manager job
Jose Bautista - OF - Toronto Blue Jays

According to Jon Paul Morosi of FOXSports.com, the Blue Jays reached out to Bobby Cox last month about their manager job.

It's an interesting idea to think about, as Cox managed the Blue Jays from 1982-1985, but the 71-year-old said no. Still, Morosi wonders if Cox could reconsider following the Jays' blockbuster deal with the Marlins. Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos has indicated that he would prefer a manager with experience, but his search has largely been kept under wraps.
