MATT BUSH TO TORONTO
The Toronto Blue Jays acquired pitcher Matt Bush from the San Diego Padres for cash.
What does it give the Toronto Blue Jays
Bush is a hard-throwing right-hander with a lot of potential, but with a lot of baggage as well. He will probably be brought along extremely slowly, since he is a former shortstop with a history of injury and off-field trouble.
What does it give the San Diego Padres
The Padres designated Bush for assignment when they signed veteran outfielder Cliff Floyd. Clearly, they didn't believe Bush had much of a future in San Diego, so they decided to accept a minimal return for him.
