Seven year Blue Jays veteran signs deal to return to NL contender
Where did he sign?
Tim Mayza, a seven-year veteran of the Toronto Blue Jays, has signed a contract with the Philadelphia Phillies. According to report, the Phillies agreed to a one-year deal for the veteran lefty, who has been with the team for the past three years. Mayza's new contract is worth $2.75 million. As the playoffs are ongoing in Major League Baseball, other teams have made decisions on players.
With the potential baseball lockout looming, signing Mayza was likely a smart move for the Phillies, as there was no reason to delay his contract. Throughout his career, Mayza has been known to maintain a decent performance, with a 3.48 ERA last season in 60 appearances. He may have overstepped his role in Philadelphia, but that was due to the team's bullpen. In the past, he has performed well, including in 2023 when he posted a 1.52 ERA in 69 outings.
