Blue Jays Bet on Lorenzen's Comeback | MLB News

Toronto Blue Jays add veteran right-hander Michael Lorenzen on a one-year deal to bolster their pitching staff as they chase a playoff spot, sending Chad Dallas to Triple-A and placing Jonatan Clase on the 60-day IL. Lorenzen, who struggled with a 7.08 ERA in 25 starts for Colorado this season, hasn’t pitched in the majors since mid-August after a rough outing. The Rockies designated him for assignment, but Toronto sees potential — especially given his 4.64 ERA last year with Kansas City. With Shane Bieber sidelined, the Jays hope Lorenzen’s diverse arsenal and experience can reignite his form and help them make a deep postseason run, all while paying only prorated league minimum.
