J.A. Happ is back with the Blue Jays after signing a three-year deal for $36 million in free agency.


J.A. Happ pitched against the Blue Jays for the first time in Seattle July 25 after being traded to the Mariners for outfielder Michael Saunders last off-season.


J.A. Happ has a chance to improve on his 19-20 record and 4.39 earned run average he compiled with Toronto from 2012 to 2014.

The 33-year-old lefty was 4-6 with a 4.64 ERA with Seattle before being traded to Pittsburgh for minor league righty Adrian Sampson at the July 31 trade deadline. Under the tutelage of pitching coach Ray Searage, Happ he won seven of nine decisions with an ERA of 1.85.

Jon Morosi has tweeted that Happ's deal means David Price will not be coming back to Toronto. Bauxites, what say you about Happ's return to Baseball North?
