The Blue Jays have signed right-hander Philippe Aumont to a minor-league deal.
Fantasy Impact
Aumont, 37, hasn't pitched professionally since the 2019 season, but will pitch for Canada at the upcoming World Baseball Classic.
RHP Phillippe Aumont has retired from baseball to become a farmer.
Fantasy Impact
Aumont signed a minor league deal with the Blue Jays in December, but ultimately decided to retire. “ Aumont, 31, has made the momentous decision to step back from competitive sport and take up farming,” per CBC news. The 31-year-old finishes his career with a (1-6) record, 6.80 ERA and a 42:34 K:BB across 43 2/3 innings in four seasons with the Phillies.
Phillippe Aumont, who is fighting for a roster spot in the bullpen, blew a save against the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday. The Phillies ended up winning the game, 5-3 with Aumont getting the victory. He allowed 3 hits and a walk, while striking out 2 in 1 2/3 innings. The run he allowed was unearned. Aumont has an ERA of 3.52 in Grapefruit League play.
Fantasy Impact
Aumont has pitched parts of the past three seasons with the Phillies. He struggled to a 19.06 ERA in 5 2/3 innings last season. Aumont allowed 14 hits, 3 home runs and 12 earned runs. Aumont has a career ERA of 6.13 in 39 2/3 innings. It's difficult to envision Aumont having much fantasy value, should be make the Phillies' roster.
