The D-backs sent second baseman Kelly Johnson to the Blue Jays on Tuesday in exchange for infielders Aaron Hill and John McDonald.

Johnson was hitting .209 with 18 homers and 49 RBIs for Arizona.

Hill was hitting .225 with six homers and 45 RBIs for the Jays while McDonald was batting .250 with two homers and 20 RBIs.

In corresponding moves, the D-backs transferred right-handed pitcher Jason Marquis to the 60-day disabled list, and the Blue Jays recalled catcher Brian Jeroloman from Triple-A Las Vegas.
