Blue Jays Claim David Pauley

By Ben Nicholson-Smith | June 20, 2012 at 1:06pm CDT

The Blue Jays announced that they claimed right-hander David Pauley off of waivers from the Angels. Toronto's 40-man roster is now full.

Two days ago the Angels designated Pauley for assignment for the second time in as many months. The 29-year-old has appeared in five MLB games this year and has a career ERA of 4.51 with 5.3 K/9, 2.9 BB/9 and a 47.7% ground ball rate. The Blue Jays have lost three fifths of their starting rotation to injuries, so Pauley will be a welcome addition to John Farrell's bullpen.

      I can’t wait to see the rest of the plan.  Taking on $80 million-plus of dead weight and giving up Mike Napoli and the revenge plan is David Pauley.

        Well, that and still being a better team than Toronto over the past year and a half despite making the worst trade in baseball history.

        Nice.  He will upgrade to a 5 ERA while you guys continue to not make the playoffs every year.

          I can think of 300 million reasons why you shouldn’t be bashing any signings right now.

    I remember when he came up with the Sox in 06. He’s a super groundballer type.. if you put him on a team with a great defense like that one, I think he could get you a bunch of wins.
