The 33-year-old right-hander fought his way back to the big leagues for the first time since the 2011 season, but surrendered five runs on five hits, including four homers, in his three innings of work. He'll try to continue his career on a minor league deal with an invitation to spring training. |

Sat Feb 23 2013 | 17:32 | Dave Bush goes two scoreless for Jays |
Dave Bush threw two hitless innings out of the pen to pick up the win as the Blue Jays bested the Tigers 8-3 on Saturday. |
Back where he started, Bush is a major long shot to crack the Blue Jays' Opening Day roster after going 4-3 with a 3.16 ERA in 11 starts with the Phillies' Triple-A affiliate and spending some time in Korea last year. Bush went 10-15 with a 4.15 ERA for the Blue Jays in 2004-05 before being shipped to Milwaukee and turning in a couple of nice years for the Brewers. |

Blue Jays signed RHP Dave Bush to a minor league contract. |
Bush pitched fairly well for Triple-A Lehigh Valley in 2012, posting a 3.16 ERA and 1.23 WHIP over 11 starts before exploring an opportunity in the Korean Baseball Organization. While he's a long shot to crack the major league roster out of spring training, he'll serve as valuable insurance at the Triple-A level. |

Phillies released RHP Dave Bush. |

Tue May 29 2012 | 20:52 | Dave Bush has out clause |
Dave Bush has an out clause in his contract that he can exercise on June 1 if the Phillies don't call him up. |
Bush has posted a 2.61 ERA in 10 starts with Triple-A Lehigh Valley, so the Phillies might be tempted to bring him up in order to avoid losing him. He could conceivably take Roy Halladay's (shoulder) spot in the rotation, but it's more likely he'd be used in a long relief role. |

Fri Dec 9 2011 | 16:27 | Phils re-sign RHP Bush to minors deal |
Phillies re-signed RHP Dave Bush to a minor league contract. |
The contract also includes an invite to spring training. Bush, 32, finished the 2011 season with Triple-A Lehigh Valley after pitching in the majors with the Rangers and at the Triple-A level with the Cubs. The veteran right-hander is a longshot to make Philadelphia's Opening Day roster. |

Thu Aug 11 2011 | 15:58 | Dave Bush opts out of deal with Cubs |
Dave Bush has elected to become a free agent. |
Bush signed a minor league deal with the Cubs last month and posted a 6.14 ERA over five starts with Triple-A Iowa. The 31-year-old right-hander was released by the Rangers at the end of June after compiling a 5.79 ERA and 23/9 K/BB ratio over three starts and 14 relief appearances. It's unlikely we'll see him again in the majors this season. |

Cubs signed RHP Dave Bush to a minor league contract. |
Bush was cut loose by the Rangers earlier this month after posting a 5.79 ERA in 37 1/3 innings. He'll report to Triple-A Iowa to provide depth but is certainly a longshot to make any kind of impact in the second half. |

Bush was designated for assignment earlier this month after posting a 5.79 ERA in 37 1/3 innings and drew no interest from other teams. The 31-year-old right-hander will likely have to settle for a minor league contract. |

Wed Apr 13 2011 | 16:26 | Rangers' Bush goes three scoreless |
Making a spot start, Dave Bush pitched three scoreless innings versus the Tigers on Wednesday. |
With the Rangers playing so well, Bush hadn't made an appearance in any of the team's 11 games before today. He got the start in this one in part because of last weekend's doubleheader. |

Dave Bush is likely to start for the Rangers on Wednesday against the Tigers. |
The Rangers are giving Colby Lewis the week off as he awaits the birth of his daughter. Bush has not pitched in a game this year and can be avoided for fantasy purposes. He had a 5.14 ERA in 14 innings this spring. |

Thu Mar 31 2011 | 22:37 | Rangers add Dave Bush to roster |
Rangers purchased the contract of RHP Dave Bush from Triple-A Round Rock. |
Bush made the team after posting a 5.14 and 8/4 K/BB ratio over 14 innings this spring. The Rangers' pitching depth could be tested early, especially given Alexi Ogando's inexperience as a starter, so Bush will function as a long reliever. |

Sun Mar 27 2011 | 12:42 | Bush makes Rangers as long reliever |
Dave Bush has made the Rangers as a long reliever. |
Making the roster means he'll make $1 million with a possible $1 million more in incentives. The 31-year-old right-hander was with the Brewers from 2006-10. He went 8-13 with a 4.54 ERA over 174 1/3 innings last season. |

Sun Jan 30 2011 | 14:36 | Rangers sign Dave Bush to minor league deal |
Rangers signed RHP Dave Bush to a minor league contract. |
Bush will earn $1 million with a possible $1 million more in incentives, and the deal includes an opt-out clause if he doesn't make the opening day roster. He'll get an invite to spring training, where the right-hander could compete for a spot in the rotation. He would seem to be a longshot to win the No. 5 job, but if Neftali Feliz stays in the bullpen and/or Brandon Webb suffers a setback, a spot could open up. Most likely, he'll just give the Rangers some needed depth. Bush has almost always had good peripherals but so-so results, but he was pretty bad all the way around in 2010. |
Wed Jan 26 2011 | 11:06 | Rockies interested in Bush, Lopez for depth |
According to Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com, the Rockies are looking for rotation depth and have interest in Dave Bush and Rodrigo Lopez. |
Neither would be counted on as a regular contributor for the rotation, but the Rockies want a veteran who can make 12-15 starts, if necessary. Bush went 8-13 with a 4.54 ERA over 174 1/3 innings with the Brewers last season while Lopez had a 7-16 record and 5.00 ERA with the Diamondbacks. They could probably get either on a minor league deal. |

Tue Jan 11 2011 | 12:34 | Mets looking into free agent righty Dave Bush |
According to ESPN.com's Jerry Crasnick, the Mets have begun looking into free agent right-hander Dave Bush. |
Bush registered an ugly 8-13 record, 4.54 ERA and 1.51 WHIP over 32 appearances for the Brewers last season, working as both a starter and reliever. He might have a little more success in Citi Field, which tends to hold home run balls, but the 31-year-old is well past his days of effectiveness. No matter where he signs, the right-hander won't have much fantasy value. |
