The Blue Jays have announced that Jesse Litsch has cleared waivers and has rejected his outright assignment o the minor leagues. Toronto activated Litsch from the 60 day disabled list earlier today.Litsch missed the entire 2012 season due to several injuries. He threw 75 relief innings in 2011, posting a 4.44 ERA.
Analysis: Litsch had a few good years with Toronto when he first came up and I thought that he would be an ideal setup man and/or long relief man for them. However injuries, some that were actually "career threatening", have completely screwed up his career. I wouldn't be surprised if he latches on with another team on a minor league deal, because we know that he is a decent pitcher when healthy.
