The Blue Jays have signed right-handed pitcher Connor Overton to a minor league contract after he was released by the Mets following a solid spring training. Overton, who made his MLB debut with the Jays in 2021, has a career 4.85 ERA in 59 1/3 major league innings but has excelled in Triple-A with a 3.87 ERA over 116 1/3 innings. The Jays are dealing with significant pitching depth issues due to injuries, prompting their move to bring in Overton for potential roster support later this season.
