MLB Note - Toronto Blue Jays Leone, Dominic

Aug 17, 2017 - 8:55 AM RHP Dominic Leone was activated from the bereavement list Wednesday and LHP J.P. Howell was designated for assignment. Leone was put on the bereavement list Sunday. Leone is 2-0 with a 2.55 ERA in 45 games with Toronto. Leone pitched out of a bases-loaded jam by getting the final two outs of the seventh inning of the 3-2 win over the Tampa Bay Rays Wednesday after LHP Aaron Loup walked in a run. Leone has been one of the unsung members of the Blue Jays bullpen. "You can't say enough good things about him, he just comes right at you with a hard fastball," C Raffy Lopez said. "His stuff is just so good it's hard to hit, He comes at you, he's not scared."
