Mark Teahen released by Blue Jays
The Blue Jays announced that they have given Mark Teahen his unconditional release. They designated the infielder/outfielder for assignment earlier in the month and will be responsible for paying his $5.5MM salary in 2012.
Teahen joined the Blue Jays in the three-way deal that sent Edwin Jackson to St. Louis and Colby Rasmus to Toronto. The 30-year-old posted a .200/.273/.300 line in 177 plate appearances for the White Sox and Blue Jays in 2011, appearing at all four corner positions.

If Rasmus doesn't play better
this becomes a horrible trade for the Blue Jays…losing Stewart, Rzepcynski, 5.5 million, Miles Jaye and Daniel Webb. For Rasmus.
It came from afar and traveled sedately on, a shrug of eternity
