Blue Jays signed RHP Claudio Vargas to a minor league contract.
The deal includes a spring training invite. Vargas, 34, had a 3.69 ERA in 20 starts this past season with the Brewers' Triple-A affiliate and hasn't pitched in the big leagues since 2010. He'll likely serve as organizational depth with Triple-A Buffalo.

Brewers signed RHP Claudio Vargas to a minor league contract.
Vargas will report to Triple-A Nashville, where he's expected to be used as a starting pitcher. The 33-year-old announced his retirement last summer, only to sign with Vaqueros Laguna of the Mexican League for the 2012 season. He hasn't pitched in the big leagues since 2010 as a member of the Brewers and is unlikely to make a major impact.

MLB Trade Rumors
Claudio Vargas has announced his retirement.
Vargas signed a minor league deal with the Rockies in January and posted an ugly 11.08 ERA and 19/13 K/BB ratio over his first 26 innings with Triple-A Colorado Springs. The 32-year-old right-hander posted a 4.83 ERA in parts of eight major league seasons between the Nationals, Brewers, Diamondbacks, Mets and Dodgers.

MLB Trade Rumors
Claudio Vargas could miss the rest of the spring with a hamstring injury sustained Sunday, according to the Denver Post's Troy Renck.
Vargas, who was signed to a minor league deal in January, probably wasn't going to make the Rockies as a middle reliever. He'll have to pitch well in Triple-A before he gets another shot.

Jose Reyes
D.L.
Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos said it "would not surprise me" if Jose Reyes returned in late June.
Reyes had the walking boot on his left foot removed Tuesday and is evidently recovering a bit ahead of schedule, as he had been expected to sit out until around the All-Star break. The shortstop is still in the early stages of his recovery, though. A lot can happen over the next six weeks.

D.L.
Rajai Davis (oblique) has been sent to Florida to start his rehab.
Davis hasn't played since May 10 due to a strained oblique. Blue Jays manager John Gibbons doesn't expect it to be a long-term injury, so it's possible he could return later this month.

D.L.
Josh Johnson (triceps) will begin a rehab assignment Monday with High-A Dunedin.
Johnson has been on the DL since April 29, but he hasn't had any issues during his throwing program. He'll likely need 2-3 games before he's cleared to rejoin the Blue Jays' rotation. Johnson is on track for a return in the early part of June.

J.A. Happ
D.L.
J.A. Happ (head, knee) is expected to be sidelined 4-6 weeks.
Happ will avoid throwing for a week before beginning to toss on flat ground. The Blue Jays are optimistic that the left-hander will be sidelined closer to four weeks. All things considered, that's about as good as Happ and the club could have hoped for.

Dustin McGowan
D.L.
Dustin McGowan (shoulder) will continue his minor league rehab assignment with Triple-A Buffalo.
McGowan allowed one hit and one walk over two scoreless innings with High-A Dunedin and notched four strikeouts. The Blue Jays can't count on him given his lengthy injury history, but he could be an option to join the bullpen later this month if all goes well.

Drew Hutchison
D.L.
Drew Hutchison (elbow) is on track to face live hitters in about three weeks.
Hutchison is currently making his way back from Tommy John surgery last August. While the 22-year-old right-hander is unlikely to see any game action until late in the season, he feels good about his progress. "You always want to do more but you know you have to follow the process and do what they tell you to do because that’s what’s in your best interest," said Hutchison. "I feel good, which is good, but you also realize that it’s the process and you need to follow the process."

Kyle Drabek
D.L.
Kyle Drabek (elbow) expects to throw live batting practice in the next week or two.
Drabek threw a bullpen session Monday in extended spring training. He's coming back from the second Tommy John surgery of his career, so the Blue Jays figure to take things slow, but he could be looking at a return around midseason if all goes well.

Sergio Santos will have surgery to remove bone chips and spurs from his right elbow.
Santos had been nearing a minor league rehab assignment, but the discomfort in his elbow has suddenly returned. The surgery isn't expected to end his season, but it's unlikely he'll make it back until the second half.
