The injuries and a 2-8 road trip pretty much killed the season for the Jays.

Wallace is interesting, but not so much. Jays paid only money to get him, so why not? But still little chance he'll do anything with his career at this point. The kid was really getting fat, I wonder how much he took care of himself? More of a project, but more than likely a guy who'll just fill out their AAA roster if anything.

Blue Jays have reportedly claimed LHP Brad Mills off waivers from the A's.

Also, apparently looking into the recently-released Alfonso Soriano.

band-aids for both of the above. They need surgery to repair the starters and outfield.

Just in time for the series versus the Jays. The Rangers have called up the worst ballplayer of all time from AAA. Likely to be playing 1B.

The Blue Jays are part of an “ongoing dialogue” regarding Chase Headley, Rosenthal’s colleague Jon Morosi tweets. The Jays have shown interest in Headley in the past.
I don't know what is in AA's head or Rogers' for that matter but this just seems against anything the Jays actually need. Headley is on the last year of his contract so the Jays can't control him, he plays 3B and LF as far as I know which means Lawrie stays at 2nd which is a waste of his fielding talent and bat on the corner, and Headley is a terrible bat and that the Jays can already have on the corner from within. Unless Headley is an incredible fielder and can play 2nd, this makes no sense. If prefer they try harder for a different Chase.

Jays have also checked in on recently released Alfonso Soriano but Soriano is mulling over his options; this per the same website.

Gose is a maddening player. He makes too many mental mistakes for a guy that is a tweener and has holes in his game. Just got picked off by starting back to 1st but not going all the way back.

What an idiot, cost the team a run and he's laughing in the dugout.

He is lucky that their are so many injuries on this team or his ass would be sent back to Buffalo immediately.

Yeah saw him laughing too. Far too casual for a team fighting for its life. Get rid of him

Yeah, I can't believe he was smirking especially after he would have scored likely if he was still on base.

And now the bases are loaded with 2 out. They need this game!

The Jays should not pick up Soriano, that would be an insanely stupid and AA desperate to keep his job move.

What a weird little implosion from Mark Beurhle there. Loses his balance throwing a pitch, 5-3 Jays, then gives up a two run hit, 5-5 Jays. I still think they Jays take this game.

Gibbons once again keeps his starter in too long. Jays lose this one too many wasted chances in this one and some indifferent play on defence.
