We’re less than a week from pitchers and catchers reporting, which means the roster is fairly close to being set. That said, this is the time of year the minor tweaks and adjustments are made, and we saw the Blue Jays make one of those moves on Thursday, signing Jake Elmore to a minor league deal with an invitation to spring training.
Elmore apperaaed in 59 games for the San Diego Padres last season, and has played in parts of five seasons with the Arizona Diamondbacks, Houston Astros, Tampa Bay Rays, and Cincinnati Reds since 2012. He debuted with the Diamondbacks in 2012, playing in 30 games as a rookie.
