<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Jays sign rhp brett oberholtzer</p>
<p>&mdash; Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) <a href="https://twitter.com/JonHeyman/status/806603992692379649">December 7, 2016</a></p></blockquote>

<p>How important is this move? Well, Heyman is notorious for his dislike of the &#8216;shift&#8217; key, making him the ee cummings of twitter. He normally makes an exception for player names though. Our man Brett doesn&#8217;t even get that consideration. He also has to change which arm he throws with.</p>
<p>He&#8217;s been brought on board via a minor league deal. It&#8217;s clear the Jays aren&#8217;t looking for Brett Oberholzter to make any great impact in the MLB bullpen, but the AAA team needs arms too. He has a WHIP of 1.50 over the last two seasons in he majors, and an ERA of 5.89. However, he&#8217;s 27 and left handed, so he&#8217;ll be able to find a job somewhere until just prior to the heat death of the universe.</p>
<p>Welcome to the roster Mr. Oberholtzer, we&#8217;ll certainly see you in a Bisons&#8217; cap and maybe in a Jays one.</p>
