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.

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.
