TORONTO -- The Toronto Blue Jays have signed right-handed pitcher Jon Rauch to a one-year contract with a club option for 2012.

The first year is worth $3.5 million and the club option is $3.75 million.

The 32-year-old Rauch posted a 3-1 record with a 3.12 ERA and a career-high 21 saves over 59 games with the Twins last season.

Over 415 career contests -- 11 starts -- with the Chicago White Sox (2002-04), Montreal/Washington (2004-08), Arizona (2008-09) and Minnesota (2009-10), Rauch has recorded a 34-27 mark with 41 saves and a 3.71 ERA.
