The Blue Jays acquired Anthony Gose, as the Astros flipped him after acquiring him from the Phillies in a trade for Roy Oswalt.

"He's someone who we've been after for a long time," Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos said in a radio interview on the FAN 590 on Thursday in Toronto.

The Blue Jays sent first-base prospect Brett Wallace to Houston in order to add Gose to Toronto's farm system.
