Pitcher Gavin Floyd agrees to $1M, 1-year deal with Toronto

TORONTO — Right-hander Gavin Floyd and the Toronto Blue Jays have agreed to a $1 million, one-year contract.

Floyd can make an additional $1 million in bonuses based on days on the active roster: $500,000 for 90, and $250,000 each for 120 and 140.

A 12-year veteran who has also pitched for Philadelphia, the Chicago White Sox and Atlanta, Floyd had a 2.70 ERA and no decisions in seven relief appearances with Cleveland last season, missing significant time with a fractured elbow for the second straight year.

To make room for Floyd, the Blue Jays designated right-hander Chad Jenkins for assignment.
