The Return of the Russ, and other transactions

After last night's loss, the Jays recalled Russ Adams from Syracuse.

Please, try to contain your excitement.

Hector Luna, we barely knew you.

We wouldn't read too much into this
Jason Stark's ESPN column yesterday indicated that Troy Glaus had cleared waivers (scroll way down the page). We don't think it's terribly shocking that J.P. would run Glaus and the $24 million left on his contract through, at least just to see if he got a bite, nor do we think that it is surprising that no one made a claim. That's a pretty big nut to fit into just about any team's salary structure going forward. Our guess is that Troy is back in a Jays uniform next year, with further diminishing returns.
