The Toronto Blue Jays have claimed right-handed pitcher Taylor Buchholz off waivers from the Colorado Rockies, according to a team press release. The Rockies designated Bucholz for assignment on Tuesday.
Buccholz missed the 2009 season due to Tommy John surgery. He never regained his form from his stunning 2008 season when he went 6-6 with a 2.17 ERA in 63 relief appearances for the Rockies.
Buchholz, 28, was 1-0 with a 4.50 ERA over 10 innings pitched in seven relief appearances for the Rockies this season.
