Jon Rauch avoided suspension but was fined undisclosed amount by MLB for his involvement last week's incident with umpire Alfonso Marquez. Rauch looked like a madman when he after Marquez due to some questionable calls on balls and strikes. But, luckily for him, his manager and teammates held him back so he never made contact with the umpire, which surely saved him from a suspension. Rauch is expected to serve as the Blue Jays' closer in the short term while Frank Francisco sorts through his issues.
