The Blue Jays announced this afternoon they’ve passed reliever A.J. Cole through waivers and assigned him outright to Triple-A Buffalo. Cole has previously been outrighted in his career, so he’ll have the right to elect free agency.
Cole logged 23 1/3 innings for the Jays last season, posting a 3.09 ERA but shakier peripherals. He was non-tendered over the winter but returned to the organization on a minor league deal. Selected to the big league roster in early May, Cole worked eight innings of one-run ball with seven strikeouts and just one walk. He landed on the 10-day injured list with neck tightness in early June, then suffered a left oblique strain that caused him to be shifted to the 60-day IL.
Nearing a return from those injuries, Cole began a minor league rehab assignment on August 11. Pitchers are allotted thirty days on rehab, and with Cole’s window dwindling, the Jays had to decide whether to bring him back. Rather than reinstall Cole to the active and 40-man rosters, Toronto elected to place him on waivers.
Cole has also appeared with the Nationals, Yankees and Indians over parts of seven big league seasons. Overall, the 29-year-old owns a 4.51 ERA/4.25 SIERA in 205 1/3 innings. Even if Cole accepts this outright assignment, he’d qualify for minor league free agency this winter if the Jays don’t add him back to the 40-man roster by the end of the season.
My girl just outrighted me to Triple-A Ex-Town 🙁
Guess you can stop calling her your girl then?
It happens to the best of us, brother. Thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery. Plenty of fish in the sea, you just gotta use the right bait…
That’s right. And the best bait is made by a company named Master.
They have a new product that comes with an Auto-as-fixie (Asian mode).
@neo is that shorthand auto erotic asphyxiation?
Is Asian mode your personal preference because you do it while watching anime?
Sounds cool.
And it’s located near Ft Myers!
That’s rough man
Sorry to hear about that, bro. There are only 30 MLB clubs to catch on with, but millions of women. When the time is right, spend some time with your favorite activity and you’ll meet a single woman with the same interest. Unless you’re like ldog…he won’t meet any women while doing his favorite activity!
That’s tough man. Maybe you’ll meet a girl on these comment boards. Is that why she dumped you? You did post a lot, but whatever. At least now you can hang with some cool bro’s!
Single men are always popular. The older the better.
What if you’re single, older, and broke?
Is it because you kept comparing her to David Fletcher?
It’s because you kept comparing her to David Fletcher.
Poor Cole no one comments about him on his own post hahahha.
Pirates will probably pick him up.
Angels should grab him, announce “we just got Cole!”
Second times the charm
