The Toronto Blue Jays have been making some changes to their pitching staff as they released Jose Urena into free agency last night.
The Blue Jays have been making a lot of changes lately as Easton Lucas was called up for one game in which he had a great performance then was sent back down to Triple-A as well.
Blue Jays release starting pitcher Jose Urena into free agency
The Blue Jays announced a few weeks ago a long list of roster moves which included signing free agent Jose Urena to a one year major league deal.
ROSTER MOVES:
Signed RHP Spencer Turnbull to 1-year MLB contract & optioned to FCL Blue Jays
Signed RHP José Ureña to 1-year MLB contract
RHP Max Scherzer transferred to 60-day IL
RHP Erik Swanson transferred to 60-day IL
LHP Josh Walker optioned to Triple-A

Then after making a few starts for the Blue Jays, Urena was DFA'd a few days ago to make room of their roster for Easton Lucas who only played a single game before he was sent back down.
Now, the Blue Jays announce yesterday that Urena has officially cleared waivers and has elected free agency.

Urena actually put up solid numbers during his short stint in Toronto which is why he will probably able to find a new landing spot, even if it is in the minors.
Should the Blue Jays have kept Jose Urena?
