Social Media Reacts
Here’s what people were saying on social media:
@thepackfan2009: “This makes no sense. Why? Why does he keep getting released by teams? Seems like a solid player.”
@BrewPack8: “Yeah kinda insane we didn’t give him a shot”
@JordonLaw_PxP: “Very odd”

@suitedconnect: “I assume he utilized an out clause, and has a job lined up in Asia or, possibly in the majors.”
@MSkurzewski: “After the first go-round, seeing Greg Jones selected again over him was probably the last straw lol. Can definitely see why he wants to go and get a shot somewhere. Did all he could to earn a shot.”
It will be interesting to see who picks up Leonard before the end of the 2026 season.
