Free-agent reliever Jason Frasor has signed a $1.5 million deal with the Texas Rangers, according to multiple reports. The right-hander had spent most of his nine-year career with the Toronto Blue Jays, save for a two-month stint with the White Sox in 2011. Toronto reacquired him last winter. Frasor, 34, has logged 522 innings with a 3.77 ERA, including a 4.12 ERA in 44 innings last season. Frasor could fill some of void left when setup Mike Adams signed with the Philadelphia Phillies.

The Texas Rangers have signed bullpen arm Jason Frasor to a one-year $1.5mm deal, Jon Heyman of CBS Sports reports. To make room for Frasor, the team designated Eli Whiteside who has been DFA'd just about every week this offseason.

Sources: LHP Oliver mulls retirement

Via Fox Sports  |  January 03, 2013
Left-hander Darren Oliver's decision on whether to continue his career is more complicated than it might appear. Oliver, 42, wants to play, but is not willing to return to the Toronto Blue Jays unless the team increases his salary from $3 million, according to major-league sources. The reliever would rather retire than be away from his family for a salary that is well below...

Adam Lind: Ready For His Last Season in the Big Leagues?

Via FootBasket  |  January 04, 2013
Living in Toronto, I have watched many Adam Lind at-bats in my time. Watching him recently, I start to ponder back to the days of Russ Adams and Josh Towers. Watching each of these players (hit and pitch respectively), I continually asked myself one question: how do these guys still have jobs? Perhaps the manager really likes them. Perhaps the organization sees immense potential...

How The Mets Improved Their Long Term Outlook By Trading R.A. Dickey

Via Double G Sports  |  January 03, 2013
Travis d’Arnaud was the center piece around the deal that sent R.A. Dickey to Toronto. With an All-Star appearance, 32.2-inning scoreless streak, 20 wins and a Cy Young, R.A. Dickey certainly had one of the best 2012’s in baseball. The 37-year old looked to be heading to retirement until he retooled a knuckleball that proved to be nearly unhittable. So what did that earn him...

Darren Oliver Looking for a Raise to Return to Blue Jays

Via MLB Injury News  |  January 04, 2013
Free Agent reliever Darren Oliver wants more money if the Toronto Blue Jays are going to bring him back.  However, wanting more and getting more are two different things altogether.  The Blue Jays have already spent a lot of money this offseason, and they may not be willing to shell out too much more to bring back a 42-year old reliever. Oliver performed well for the Blue Jays...
