Chad Green

Originally selected in the 11th round of the MLB June Entry Draft by the Detroit Tigers in 2013, Green was traded to the Yankees in December of 2015. He made ...

The Toronto Blue Jays signed free agent relief pitcher Chad Green on Monday. He made his MLB debut the next season. He notes second year is conditional player option that Green can exercise if Jays decline a third-year club option.

Toronto has reportedly signed fireballer Chad Green, according to Shi Davidi, though the right-hander is still recovering from TJ surgery.

Earlier this offseason, the Jays bolstered their pen by trading Teoscar Hernández to the Mariners for reliever Erik Swanson. Green, 31, has been a reliable late-inning option (3.17 ERA) and a high-velocity strikeout machine (11.6 K/9) in his seven years with the Yankees. The South Carolina native's reported contract comes cheaper than normal as he recovers from Tommy John surgery in June.

Green, 31, underwent Tommy John surgery at the end of May last year and won't be ready to pitch for the Jays until later in the year.

If the move doesn’t pan out, Green’s $2.25-million guarantee for this season represents a small fraction of a payroll that has moved into luxury tax territory. It is uncertain how effective Green will be upon returning from a major surgical procedure. A combination of injuries and subpar performances figure to open additional spots as the year progresses. The 31-year-old Green underwent Tommy John surgery in June and, while an exact time frame for his return remains unknown, pitchers typically require at least 12 months to recover after the procedure. If Green declines his player option, the Jays have a two-year option worth $21 million and another $1 million in incentives. It includes a complicated team option and player option structure that could see the deal extended through 2026.

If he declines that, the Jays can trigger a two-year, $21MM option with $1MM in bonuses. Since player options are considered guaranteed, the $8.5MM figure comes ...

[Michael Marino of Fantrax](https://twitter.com/MarinoMLB/status/1620486141786075137?s=20&t=ZPPJVc8xFHhMWs91CfEpog) first reported the Jays and Green were in agreement. Green was never given the closer’s role due to the presence of [Aroldis Chapman](https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/c/chapmar01.shtml?utm_medium=linker&utm_source=www.mlbtraderumors.com&utm_campaign=2023-01-31_br), tallying just 11 saves in his career so far, but he does have 52 holds. That’ll be just a bit shy of some other deals for notable relievers this offseason, such as the $32MM for Jansen, $33MM for The Tommy John surgery was quite poorly timed for Green, as he was just a few months away from qualifying for free agency. Since making that transition, he has somewhat quietly been one of the most effective relievers in the league. He will make $2.25MM in 2023 and then Jays will then have the option of triggering a $27MM option for the next three years, with up to $1MM in bonuses. That was essentially the end of his time as a true starter, as the Yanks converted him to relief on a full-time basis. If Green should suffer some kind of setback or struggle to get back on track in his return, he will at least be able to lock in some salary for 2024. He was primarily a starter at that time and made his MLB debut in 2016 in a swing capacity.

Green is coming off Tommy John surgery, so he'll be looking at a late season or 2024 return.

They'd like to avoid a repeat and adding bullpen depth is part of the plan, both for 2023 and beyond. Any work Green does toward the end of the 2023 season would be a bonus for the Jays. Green had Tommy John surgery last June, so he'll miss most of the 2023 season, if not all of it.

Le lanceur avait été repêché par les Jays en 2010 avant de prendre le chemin de l’université. Green correspond à ce que les Jays cherchent : un gars qui génère des élans dans le beurre. En fait, la deuxième année est une option de joueur conditionnelle que Greene peut prendre si les Jays refusent d’abord les trois années d’option d’équipe. Cela fera en sorte que les Jays vont encore plus payer la taxe de luxe. Il avait alors été sélectionné trois ans plus tard par les Tigers, le club avec lequel il s’est développé dans les mineures avant de prendre le chemin de New York. Il faut aussi savoir que les tests physiques sont déjà passés, ce qui fait en sorte que le club s’attend à ce que son processus de réhabilitation se passe bien.

Peu familier avec le rôle de spécialiste des fins de match, il a effectué un seul sauvetage.

There's risk for the Jays, both this year and next, but there's even more upside with the opportunity to bring Green in and see how he performs.

If the move doesn’t pan out, Green’s $2.25 million guarantee for this season represents a tiny fraction of a Jays’ payroll which has blown into luxury tax territory. During his time in New York, Green was particularly effective against the Jays with a 2.29 ERA in 37 appearances. Green had been a regular presence in the New York Yankees bullpen since 2017 before hitting free agency.

Green underwent Tommy John surgery in June and while an exact time frame for his return remains unknown, pitchers typically require at least 12 months to recover post-procedure. The 31-year-old reportedly has passed his physical, but the Jays will have to clear a spot on their 40-man roster before the move becomes official.
