Rosters Expand Jays Add 6 New Faces for September
September 1st 2011.
All across the league Major League Rosters expanded from 25 to 40 as it is that time of year whre clubs like to get a look at the future of their franchises if only for a month. GM Ryan Stewart on his September callups this year "Well since we have such a large lead in the AL East I want to give our regulars a few extra days off in the last month of the season so they can rest and heal any of those minor ailments that plague ball players in a grueling season. We have 6 new players with us this year and we are really happy to get a look at them. The one player that I am happy to see is 3B Dave Chambers who suffered a strained back in August last season while playing for AAA Syracuse and he missed 8 months. He has fully healed and is going to get a chance to play. The 23 year old is the future for us at 3B and we think he could be ready to take over as early as next season"
Jays Callups:
