Blue Jays trade John Axford to Brewers
Brewers' all-time single-season saves leader John Axford is returning to Milwaukee.
The Toronto Blue Jays traded the right-hander to Milwaukee on Monday for cash considerations. Axford, who signed a minor league deal with the Jays in June, was not on the team's 40-man roster, making him eligible to be dealt past the trade deadline.
Axford will be in uniform for the Brewers' game Monday night against the Pittsburgh Pirat
