Moyer was cut by Baltimore and Colorado earlier this season. |

The Toronto Blue Jays have signed the 49-year-old left-hander to a minor league deal, giving the oldest pitcher to win a game in the big leagues another shot. Analysis: The Blue Jays say Moyer will make two starts for Triple-A Las Vegas, then Toronto will decide whether to bring him back to the majors. Manager John Farrell says there are no guarantees, but Moyer is worth at least a look. The Blue Jays have lost three starters to injuries this month. The agreement is similar to the deal Moyer made with Baltimore earlier this month. Moyer made three starts for the Orioles in the minors and was offered a fourth, but declined. |

Analysis: After being designated for assignment by the Rockies after going 2-5, Moyer subsequently signed a minor-league contract with Baltimore on June 6. The deal came with the stipulation that he would make three starts with Triple-A Norfolk, and after that the Orioles had to promote him or grant his release. Moyer went 1-1 with a 1.69 ERA over 16 innings at Norfolk. The Orioles liked what they saw, but the timing just wasn't right to add him to the rotation. |

Moyer is expected to start for Norfolk on Saturday against Buffalo. Analysis: The Colorado Rockies released Moyer at the end of last month, a little over a month after he became the oldest pitcher to win as a starter. On April 17, Moyer earned the win with the Rockies in a 5-3 victory over San Diego to become the oldest starter ever to win in the majors. Moyer is 269-209 with a 4.25 ERA in his 24-year career, playing for eight teams. He pitched for the Orioles in 1993-95 and missed the 2011 season following reconstructive elbow surgery. |

Analysis: The 49-year-old Moyer said in a news conference Wednesday that he still had hopes of continuing his career elsewhere but his immediate plan was to return home and attend a son's high school graduation. Rockies manager Jim Tracy told Moyer of the team's decision in a meeting earlier Wednesday. |

The 49-year-old left-hander started for the Rockies in Miami on Monday night, making his debut at the newly opened Marlins Park. Moyer has played in more parks than any other major-league player going back to at least 1921. Rudy Seanez, whose last big-league appearance was in 2008, appeared in 47 ballparks. Analysis: Last month, Moyer became the oldest pitcher to win a major league game. He has pitched against 11 current big-league managers, including Miami's Ozzie Guillen, who went 4 for 22 against Moyer in his career. Moyer first pitched in the majors in 1986. He was 8-2 at the Marlins' former home, Sun Life Stadium. |

Analysis: Moyer is 1-2 with a respectable 3.14 ERA, but shows signs of vulnerability.

Martinez homered and drove in three runs and the Houston Astros, beat 49-year-old Moyer and the Colorado Rockies 7-3 Saturday night. Analysis: Moyer allowed five hits and three runs in five innings while becoming the second-oldest pitcher to start a major league game behind Satchel Paige, who did it at 59 in 1965. He's the fifth man since 1965 to play a game after his 49th birthday, and the first since Julio Franco appeared in a game for Atlanta in September 2007. |

Rockies manager Jim Tracy announced Friday that Moyer would be one of his five starters to begin the season. Analysis: Moyer, who is entering his 25th major-league season, will start the Rockies' second game of the season April 7 against the Houston Astros. The left-hander will follow right-hander Jeremy Guthrie in the rotation and precede right-handers Juan Nicasio and Jhoulys Chacin. Moyers continus to defy the odds and smart fantasy owners should take advantage of the ageless wonder of the majors. |
