He rounds out the 25-man for now. Sounds like they signed him to be a lucky charm. Lol. Any thoughts from those who have seen him play?

He was a great utility guy 5 years ago, but he probably doesn't have much left in the tank. Can play 2B, 3B, 1B and LF.

Soooo. The Jays will probably lose Sam Dyson for a "clubhouse" guy? A warm body that can play several positions. Ugh.

Like James said 5 years ago he was great. I was kind of mad the Cubs traded him but I'm guessing he hasn't been on that level in some time

I think it's a great signing. He can play multiple positions, is a great contact hitter, and will be a big veteran presence in the clubhouse for a team that's supposed to contend for the AL Championship this year.

Doesn't Mike McCoy fill the "warm body that can play multiple positions" role? Seems the Jays already have internal and imported players who can be "clubhouse guys". Unless DeRosa represents an upgrade offensively over McCoy, which some comments here suggest he may not be.
