Blue Jays Get Segui in Trade

First baseman David Segui was dealt from the Seattle Mariners to the Toronto Blue Jays for pitchers Tom Davey and Steve Sinclair.

Segui, 33, is batting .293 in 90 games with 22 doubles, three triples, nine home runs and 39 runs batted in.

Segui refused to talk to reporters.

“He’s going to be a free agent at the end of the year. We got a couple of good young pitchers for him,” Mariner Manager Lou Piniella said.
