Tony LaCava has been promoted to interim General Manager of the Toronto Blue Jays.

New Blue Jays President and CEO Mark Shapiro confirmed the move at a news conference today.

LaCava served as an assistant to former GM Alex Anthopoulos last season.

Anthopoulos spent six years as GM but declined to sign a new contract last week. He was a popular figure in Toronto, especially after his trade deadline deals that netted stars David Price and Troy Tulowitzki helped the Jays reach the playoffs for the first time in 22 years.

Shapiro also confirmed that manager John Gibbons will be back next season.
