The Toronto Blue Jays have signed 1B/OF Adam Loewen to a minor-league contract.
A former pitcher, Loewen will be making the transformation to position player after suffering recurring stress fractures in his pitching elbow the last two seasons.
The Blue Jays also claimed righthanded pitcher Bryan Bullington off waivers from the Cleveland Indians.
To make room on the roster, outfielder Kevin Mench was designated for assignment.
Gozer should be "happy" with the Bullington Claim as well
