There's an unconfirmed report floating around that the Blue Jays have signed outfielder Joey Gathright to a free-agent contract.
It makes sense as the Blue Jays are desperate to add another corner outfielder and Gathright would come fairly cheap.
Gathright has played six years at the major-league level with four teams, most recently the Boston Red Sox this past season where he saw action in 17 games.
He is a lifetime .263 hitter.
Gathright also played at the Triple-A level this year at Norfold and Pawtucket.
The Blue Jays have yet to confirm or deny the move.
More later. Off to the Rule 5 draft.
