The Toronto Blue Jays have signed left-handed pitcher Josh Walker to a one-year contract worth US$760,000, the team announced on Friday.
The 30-year-old played 10 times for the New York Mets in 2024.
He spent most of the season at the Triple-A level with Syracuse before being traded mid-season to the Pirates organization.
In 43 total games across all levels last year, the left-handed reliever posted a 4.32 earned-run average.
The six-foot-six, 225-pound lefty from Otisville, N.Y., was selected by the Mets in the 37th round of the 2017 First-Year Player Draft out of the University of New Haven. He made his MLB debut for the team in 2023.
The Blue Jays designated right-hander Hagen Danner for assignment in a similar move.
