Josh Johnson was pulled after giving up five runs in two-plus innings Monday in a loss to the Dodgers.
Johnson retired the first four hitters he faced tonight. He then allowed seven hits, walked a batter and hit another while getting just three more outs. The Jays would seem to be pretty much out of the race after their poor start to the second half, so maybe they should consider trading Johnson. Of course, they're not likely to get much for him. He's turned in just one quality start in his last six outings, and he's now 1-6 with a 5.66 ERA for the season.
