[Laika]

This seemed inevitable

Another shark move by The Beard.

Nice depth move. Great glove.

[Inklink]

Wow, he just broke my no-hitter in MLB The Show in the 8th inning. What a coincidence!

This is good. It will allow the Blue Jays to rest Bautista (as DH) and also Pillar (days off).

 

However, he is being assigned to Buffalo so in the end it is possible that Pompey could be called up instead. In any case, it gives the Blue Jays more options for a real 4th outfielder other than Goins and Pennington.

[Dr. Dinger]

He will probably never play a game for the Jays.

I like the move and saw it coming the moment he was released

Yeah, but he is decent insurance in case of injuries.

Just heard on the pregame Drew Stubbs was DFA'd. He's still owed a little over 1 million but would be a really nice bench piece.

Beat me to it. Always loved Stubbs. I'd take him over Heisey

We've got a handful of 40 man spots open, so we don't have to take one over the other, and September is close...
