We’ll use this post to track the latest minor moves from around baseball…
- The Blue Jays have agreed to a minor-league deal with left-handed pitcher Buddy Boshers, tweets Scott Mitchell of TSN. Boshers, who formerly pitched in the bigs with the Angels and Twins, is the owner of a 4.59 ERA in 86 1/3 career innings. He spent last season toiling in Triple-A with the Astros and Pirates organizations, posting a 3.32 ERA. Per Mitchell, the 31-year-old has has been pitching in the Mexican League; however, he’ll now return to affiliated ball, joining the Jays’ Triple-A affiliate in Buffalo.
I’ve always been mildly surprised that Boshers hasn’t been more successful. He’s not great by any means, but he’s been at least decent when given a chance, and teams are always looking for lefty relievers.
Is there not going to be a post about Cameron Rupp signing with the A’s?
Good signing. If he works out he’ll be able to give Tim Mayza some rest.
Undefeated in the major leagues.
