Blue Jays signed RHP Lance Broadway to a minor league contract.

Broadway was selected in the first round of the 2005 draft and was once considered a great prospect. He can safely be considered a total bust. The 26-year-old right-hander posted a 6.17 ERA and 1.56 WHIP this past season in 19 appearances (17 starts) at the Triple-A level. Wed, Dec 16, 2009 11:40:00 AM

Lance Broadway - R - Blue Jays

Mets non-tendered RHP Lance Broadway.

Broadway, a first-round bust from the 2005 draft, was the return when the Mets gave Ramon Castro to the White Sox in May. He's just a Triple-A pitcher, and there was no reason for the Mets to carry him on the 40-man roster.

Lance Broadway - R - Blue Jays

Mets recalled RHP Lance Broadway from Triple-A Buffalo.

Broadway takes Oliver Perez's spot on the active roster. He produced a 6.17 ERA and 1.56 WHIP over his time with Triple-A affiliates Charlotte and Buffalo this season. Broadway should be avoided in all formats.

Lance Broadway - R - Blue Jays

The Mets are reportedly calling up Lance Broadway to take Oliver Perez's spot on the active roster.

Insert witty "Broadway / New York" play on words here. What we'll also insert are Broadway's Triple-A stats this season -- a 6.17 ERA and 1.56 WHIP -- which should be a red flag to stay away in all formats.

Lance Broadway - R - Blue Jays

Mets acquired RHP Lance Broadway from the White Sox for catcher Ramon Castro and cash.

The White Sox saw Broadway as a future No. 3 starter who could make it to the majors quickly when they drafted him 15th overall in 2005, but it proved to be a big misstep. He wasn't given any chance of making the team out of spring training this year, and though he was called up last month, he wasn't showing a whole lot while posting a 5.06 ERA out of the pen. Middle relief might be his ceiling now. The Mets will stick him in Triple-A.

Lance Broadway - R - Blue Jays

White Sox recalled pitcher Lance Broadway from Triple-A Charlotte.

He will take the roster spot of Jack Egbert, who was demoted on Saturday. Broadway was 0-2 with a 5.63 ERA in three starts with Triple-A Charlotte. He has a 4.44 ERA in 11 big league appearances with the White Sox.

Sat, Apr 25, 2009 03:52:00 PM

Lance Broadway - R - Blue Jays

Lance Broadway yielded four runs in 2 1/3 innings to take a loss to the Athletics on Wednesday.

Broadway's slim chances of making the White Sox are fading with both Bartolo Colon and Jose Contreras returning to health. Clayton Richard has already overtaken him in the White Sox's plans, and Aaron Poreda is about to do the same, if he hasn't already.

Wed, Mar 4, 2009 06:08:00 PM

Lance Broadway - R - Blue Jays

White Sox recalled RHP Lance Broadway from Triple-A Charlotte.

Broadway finished 11-7 with a 4.46 ERA for Charlotte, and he has an 8.44 ERA in 10 2/3 innings as a major leaguer. He's behind Clayton Richard in line for starts, and he probably won't work in tight games as a middle reliever.

Lance Broadway - R - Blue Jays

White Sox optioned RHP Lance Broadway to Triple-A Charlotte.

Broadway earned the demotion after he surrendered eight earned runs in five innings of work.

Sun, Aug 31, 2008 09:35:00 AM

Lance Broadway - R - Blue Jays

White Sox recalled RHP Lance Broadway from Triple-A Charlotte.

Broadway, back after 10 days in the minors, will likely pitch in middle relief for now, but he remains a candidate for spot starts.

Mon, Aug 25, 2008 09:17:00 PM

Lance Broadway - R - Blue Jays

White Sox optioned RHP Lance Broadway to Triple-A Charlotte.

Broadway pitched well on Thurday, but the Sox want to bolster their bullpen. Lance isn't eligible to be recalled for ten days barring an injury to a pitcher, so the Sox will likely turn to D.J. Carrasco to make a spot start against the Mariners in the meantime.

Fri, Aug 15, 2008 09:58:00 AM

Lance Broadway - R - Blue Jays

Lance Broadway allowed just two runs in 5 1/3 innings to pick up the win in his first start of the season on Thursday.

Paul Konerko booted a ball in the first inning that could have started a double play, but instead left runners at second and third - both of whom came around to score, the only damage against Lance. He allowed just five hits, but he struck out just one while walking two. Still, he improved as the game wore on, likely earning a start against Seattle next week.

Thu, Aug 14, 2008 05:39:00 PM

Lance Broadway - R - Blue Jays

Lance Broadway will start for the White Sox on Thursday.

He'll take the rotation spot of Jose Contreras instead of D.J. Carrasco. He's allowed just one earned run in 10 2/3 major league innings, but Broadway was 10-7 with a 4.68 ERA and 96/43 K/BB ratio in 138 1/3 innings at Triple-A. He's probably not going to be the solution the Sox are looking for.

Lance Broadway - R - Blue Jays

White Sox recalled RHP Lance Broadway from Triple-A Charlotte.

Broadway impressed in the majors at the end of last year, but he was struggling in Triple-A since a fast start. By month, he's posted ERAs of 1.25, 4.58, 4.66 and 8.90. He allowed three runs in 5 2/3 innings in his first start during August. The White Sox will make him available in long relief today. It might still be up in the air whether he'll be the choice to replace Jose Contreras in the rotation.

Sun, Aug 10, 2008 12:48:00 PM

Lance Broadway - R - Blue Jays

Triple-A Charlotte's Lance Broadway allowed one run over eight innings on Tuesday.

The run came on Alex Cintron's homer. Despite striking out only 19 in 36 innings, Broadway has a 1.25 ERA after five starts. He's next in line for a spot in the White Sox rotation. Still, he's not much of a fantasy sleeper.

SS	1	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. May 14

LF	1	Melky Cabrera
	2	Rajai Davis 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. May 17

Pos	Role	Name

	2	Josh Johnson D.L. Josh Johnson (triceps) will make at least two more rehab starts. Johnson struck out five over three innings of one-run ball on Monday with High-A Dunedin. He's feeling good physically, but the right-hander obviously needs to build up his stamina. He'll rejoin the rotation in early June if he can avoid a setback. May 21
	3	Brandon Morrow
	4	Mark Buehrle
	5	J.A. Happ D.L. Blue Jays transferred LHP J.A. Happ from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list. Happ was hoping to make it back by mid-June, but he now won't be eligible to return until early July. The left-hander is coming back from a small fracture behind his left ear as well as a sprained right knee. May 24
	6	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. May 17
	7	Chad Jenkins
	8	Sean Nolin
	9	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. May 8
Relief Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
R	1	Casey Janssen
	2	Sergio Santos D.L. Blue Jays transferred RHP Sergio Santos from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list. The move was made in order to clear room on the 40-man roster for Thad Weber. Santos will be out until after the All-Star break following surgery to remove bone chips and spurs from his right elbow. May 19
	3	Darren Oliver D.L. Blue Jays placed LHP Darren Oliver on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to May 19. with a left shoulder strain. Oliver has been dealing with the ailment for 7-10 and hadn't appeared in a game in nearly a week. He shouldn't be out long, but the Jays have decided to play things safe. Toronto still has two lefties in the bullpen in Aaron Loup and Brett Cecil. May 24

	5	Esmil Rogers
	6	Aaron Loup
	7	Brett Cecil
	8	Brad Lincoln
	9	Ramon Ortiz
	10	Luis Perez D.L. Luis Perez (elbow) is expected to appear in an extended spring training game later this week. Perez has been throwing bullpen sessions, but this will be his first appearance in a game. He's expected to return from Tommy John surgery around midseason. May 6
