The Blue Jays made the decision to admit a misstep in acquiring Brad Hand in July, designating the veteran left-hander for assignment. Unfortunately he barely lasted more than a month with his new team, as he was acquired on July 29th just ahead of the trade deadline.

He appeared in 11 games and threw just 8.2 innings for the Blue Jays, but it went about as poorly as it could have.
