Fox signed a minor league contract with the Blue Jays on Friday that includes an invite to spring training, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet reports.
Fox hasn't seen major-league action since 2011 with the Orioles, when he played in 27 games. The 31-year-old infielder spent 2014 with Double-A Reading, posting a .308/.373/.591 batting line with 22 home runs and 70 RBI. He will look for an opportunity at making the Jays' big league club as a utility infielder, but faces an uphill battle with Edwin Encarnacion at first and Josh Donaldson at third. Still, he could nab a spot with a strong spring training.

Pirates signed C-1B Jake Fox to a minor league contract.
Fox hit .246/.313/.442 with two home runs and six RBI in 67 major league plate appearances this year. He has enough raw power to secure a bench spot in Pittsburgh during spring training next March, but he's never been reliable enough or versatile enough for everyday duties.

Orioles purchased the contract of C-1B Jake Fox from Triple-A Norfolk.
Fox, 29, has tallied 12 home runs and 57 RBI in 67 games this season with the Triple-A Norfolk Tides. He hasn't enjoyed nearly that kind of success in the majors, though, and can be avoided for fantasy purposes.
