Availability
The Blue Jays have designated the lefty for assignment after posting a disappointing 6.75 ERA in 12 innings out of the bullpen this season.
Fantasy Impact
Since the start of 2014, Francis has been designated for assignment by four different teams, with the Blue Jays being the latest.
The Blue Jays brought up Jeff Francis from AAA Buffalo on Sunday where he was immediately pressed into action against the Braves. Daniel Norris lasted only 2 2/3 innings and was relieved by Francis, who went 3 1/3 scoreless to give the Toronto bullpen a much needed rest. Francis replaced lefty Colt Hynes on the roster, who was optioned to AAA Buffalo.
Fantasy Impact
Francis is an interesting sign for Toronto. Once a top prospect with the Rockies as a starter, Francis has bounced around a bit in the majors. With the Jays rotation struggling a bit, Francis (34) could end up having some value if he can pitch himself into a starting role.
