To TIGERS

Anthony Gose (TOR retains 45% of salary)
David Campbell

To BLUE JAYS

David Hale
Boyd Green

Hale joins the Jays.

TRADE

To CUBS

Glen Perkins
Jeff Moraine

To BLUE JAYS

Alex Green (CHC retain a small amount of salary)
Vicente Aguirre
Lorenzo Martinez
Orlando Sanchez

The real catch here is Aguirre. He was Chicago's #2 prospect.

Nick Ahmed
Claudio Acervedo

To BLUE JAYS

Derek Varnadore
Ricardo Duran
Gabriel Garcia
Lorenzo Alvarado
Norberto Pacheco

All minor leaguers (And Ahmed was a Rule 5)

The Blue Jays are on a roll since I called them out.

Tony Cingrani pitched very well and Bruce Maxwell went 3 for 3 with a home run as the Jays beat the Racers 3-1.

More concerning is Brian Goodwin, who has played well since joining the Jays, leaving the game with an unspecified injury. We await word.

Oof. An already tough season just got worse. Brian Goodwin has a torn calf muscle. He MIGHT be back before the end of the season, but don't count on it.
