Beej Activated

The Toronto Blue Jays activated former All-Star closer BJ Ryan from the DL. The Beej is about eleven months removed from having Tommy John surgery on his left arm.

Ryan has saved 38 games twice, in 2005 and 2006. After his performance with the Orioles in 2005, the Jays signed him to a five year contract worth $47M. The Jays need Ryan back to full health if they want to compete in the AL East.

Brandon League was sent down to AAA Syracuse to make room for Ryan. League gave up two runs on two hits in only 2.2 IP.
