The Blue Jays claimed catcher Eli Whiteside off waivers from the Yankees, tweets Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports. Whiteside had been designated for assignment last week; the Yanks had claimed him off waivers from the Giants.
As Rosenthal notes, the Jays already have J.P. Arencibia, John Buck, and Travis d'Arnaud vying for time behind the plate, and trades remain possible.
