knorr was called up in sept 1991. pretty late in the season.

there is no record of a "rhodes" as a player or coach on any jays regular season rosters.

the jersey was made for ricky rhodes. rhodes was originally drafted in the '87 amateur entry draft by the yankees. in 1990, the jays took from the AAA columbus clippers (yankees) in the rule 5 draft. in the spring of 1991, the jays thought they had something in rhodes and my guess is that they had a jersey made up for him as they thought he might make their major league club that season. apparently it was not to be as they returned rhodes to the yankees on march 29, 1991 hence he never made the major league club. rhodes never made the major leagues. he spent 4 seasons in the minors and then called it quits.
