Blue Jays acquire Paul DeJong from Cardinals after Bichette injury

Blue Jays All-Star shortstop Bo Bichette suffered an apparent knee injury during a recent game.
Toronto traded minor league pitcher Matt Svanson to St. Louis to acquire veteran shortstop Paul DeJong.
DeJong will provide insurance for the Blue Jays at shortstop while Bichette deals with his knee issue.
The 29-year-old DeJong has declining offensive numbers but still provides solid defense.
The trade allows the Cardinals to clear roster space and acquire pitching prospect Svanson.
