Blue Jays acquire INF Pennington from Diamondbacks
“This is what you play for, you’re excited for the opportunity to go the post-season, play meaningful games late in the season and this team is doing that”, he said.

Arizona has been shopping Pennington and Aaron Hill in order to give more playing time to young infielders Nick Ahmed and Chris Owings, with Pennington being linked to the Pirates and Nationals in trade talks. “I think that’s what we’re all going for, the wild card is cool but we want to win that division”.
The playoff-contending Blue Jays sent shortstop Dawel Lugo to Arizona. Travis is eligible to be activated on Thursday but Gibbons said that will not be possible, as the team is still unsure when he will be able to begin a minor-league rehab assignment.
Travis, 24, returned to the disabled list on July 29 with a recurrence of the shoulder injury that kept him out of the lineup for 36 games from May 17 to June 25. Reports indicate the Diamondbacks are sending cash to the Jays in the deal. The switch-hitter has started at shortstop, second base, third base and left field this year.
Pennington was a regular in Oakland for three seasons from 2010-12.
