Scott-Downs
Scott Jeremy Downs (born 17 March 1976) is an American baseball pitcher for the Toronto Blue Jays.

Downs was born in Louisville, Kentucky and attended the University of Kentucky. He was selected by the Chicago Cubs in 3rd round (94th overall) of 1997 amateur entry draft (June Regular Phase). After his senior year at Pleasure Ridge Park High School in Louisville, KY, he was selected as Kentucky's Mr. Baseball.


Scott Downs is married and has two children. Every time he comes out to pitch, he writes his children's initials in the dirt on the mound.

He also played for the Edmonton Trappers.

On February 2, 2007 the Blue Jays and Downs agreed to a 1 year $1.025 million contract. This means that Scott and Toronto will not have to go through the arbitration process.
