Jeremy Accardo serves as a relief pitcher for the Toronto Blue Jays. Toronto controls him for at least two more years before he can file for free agency. I’m not sure how his stint int he minors this year affected his service time.

Continuing the 'do as little as possible' mode that the Jays are in at the moment, they have called up David Purcey, Jeremy Accardo and Kyle Phillips. They moved Shawn Marcum from the 15 to the 60 day DL to make room for Phillips on the 40 man roster. Moving Marcum doesn...

Sometimes I really don't understand our organization. It is September, and we are out of the race. One would think it would be time to look at guys. And we call up three players? So many things we are doing make no sense in any way. What could we do?

If it wasn't for the second game in a GCL double-header, the affiliates would have scored progressively fewer runs as you descend the minor league ladder. So what I'm saying is, stop reading after Dunedin.
