Blue Jays trade Matt West to Dodgers for cash considerations

Right-hander Matt West was traded from the Toronto Blue Jays to the Los Angeles Dodgers for cash considerations Monday.

Analysis:

West was designated for assignment by the Blue Jays on Saturday, but a strong start to the season with Double-A New Hampshire led to a trade to the Dodgers and a spot on their 40-man roster. He'll likely wind up in the minors with his new organization as well, but given the state of the club's bullpen, there's a chance he could eventually end up there.
