Blue Jays Claim Matt Dominguez, Designate Danny Dorn

By Jeff Todd | September 6, 2015 at 2:10pm CDT

The Blue Jays have claimed third baseman Matt Dominguez off waivers from the Brewers, the team announced (h/t to Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca, on Twitter). Toronto has designated first baseman/outfielder Danny Dorn to clear roster space for the move.

Still just 26 years of age, and once a top prospect, Dominguez was unable to lock down a big league job despite a long look from the Astros. He was claimed off waivers by Milwaukee earlier in the year, in hopes that he’d provide a near-term option with some upside, but apparently has not shown enough to warrant a call-up from the Brewers.

Dorn, 31, has had an eventful year after nine seasons exclusively in the minors. After seeing a brief debut with the Daimondbacks, he was claimed by Toronto and will presumably now find another new organization. Dorn owns a lifetime .280/.355/.485 slash with 106 home runs over 2,847 plate appearances at the Triple-A level.

    I kind of feel for Danny Dorn. He’s hitting .370 in AAA. If you were to take 100 points off of that, it would still be above average. I hope someone gives him an opportunity as he deserves major league at bats.

    So, we let Mike Olt go past us unclaimed, and then we let our only 3B depth go via claim? Honestly? What, are we gonna use Elian Herrera there next season? Come on, we can do better than this. Gotta at least let some young guy have a chance, but we’re doing everything we can to avoid that.

      I agree with you. The free agent market at third is very weak as well.
