Blue Jays Designate Mark Teahen For Assignment
By Tim Dierkes [January 9, 2012 at 9:42am CST]
The Blue Jays designated third baseman Mark Teahen for assignment to
open a 40-man roster spot for Darren Oliver, announced the team.
The Jays acquired Teahen from the White Sox as part of a salary dump,
and they'll be assuming the $5.5MM left on his contract for 2012.
The 30-year-old hit .200/.273/.300 in 177 plate appearances last year,
playing the infield and outfield corners.
Teahen was a big component of the 2004 trade that sent Carlos Beltran
to the Astros. He couldn't sustain a strong partial season in 2006 for
the Royals, and was traded to the White Sox in November of '09.
A few months later the Sox signed him to a surprising three-year,
$14MM extension.
