The Toronto Blue Jays announce that they have signed one of their former pitchers in Jacob Barnes as they agree to a minor league contract.
The Blue Jays recently DFA'd Jacob Barnes and he elected free agents after clearing waivers but it looks like he was not unable to find a major league deal anywhere else which is why he is back in Toronto.
Blue Jays bring back Jacob Barnes as they agree to a minor league deal
The Blue Jays announced yesterday afternoon that they decided to bring back relief pitcher Jacob Barnes on a minor league deal after he elected free agency a week ago.
The Blue Jays signed Barnes yesterday and have already assigned him to the Buffalo Bisons where he will play and try to make it back to the majors.
Righty Jacob Barnes, who elected free agency April 22 after DFA, signed another minor-league deal and is back with Buffalo

After electing free agency last week, Jacob Barnes signed back with the #BlueJays on a minor-league deal. He's with the Bisons.
Barnes likely elected free agency thinking that he would be able to land a deal with a team that would give him a spot in their bullpen but with a 9.00 ERA in the MLB this season it what quite sure he would not land a new deal.
Hopefully Barnes is able to find his game once again in the minors and will get another shot at the majors if he steps up her game.
