"On Wednesday afternoon (Dec. 10) at the Winter Meetings in Orlando, Florida, the Blue Jays selected right-handed pitcher Spencer Miles from the San Francisco Giants.

He's undergone two major surgeries, including a Tommy John surgery last year and a back surgery, so the Blue Jays are taking a flier, hoping he stays healthy. All that being said though, he got up to 98.4 mph on his fastball, once he returned from his prolonged rehab."
