The Toronto Blue Jays DFA pitcher to make room for latest trade acquisition
The Toronto Blue Jays just announced that they have acquired Seranthony Dominguez from the Baltimore Orioles and have DFA'd Chad Green to make room.
The Blue Jays completed a trade with the Orioles not long after their first game of a double header this afternoon in which they acquired Dominguez in exchange for RHP Juaron Watts-Brown.
Blue Jays DFA pitcher Chad Green
The Blue Jays completed a trade with the Orioles this afternoon for Dominiguez which caused them to have to make a roster move to make space on their roster for him.
The Blue Jays have decided to DFA relief pitcher Chad Green after another terrible outing in Toronto's 16-4 loss to the Orioles.
Seranthony Dominguez will be active for Game 2 of the doubleheader. Blue Jays designate Chad Green for assignment to make room on 26-man and 40-man rosters.
Chad Green has been designated for assignment, the Blue Jays announced.
CHAD GREEN IS NO LONGER A TORONTO BLUE JAY
During the game against the Orioles, Green gave up his league worst 14th homerun of the season which is why this move is not a big surprise at all.
Chad Green has now allowed 14 HR this year, two more than any other relief pitcher in MLB.
Green clearly had a very tough season and it will be interesting to see if another team ends up taking a chance on him.
Now that Green has been DFA'd there is a chance that either he is picked up off waivers from Toronto or that another team trades for him, if not he will likely end up a free agent.
