Overview

  • The Blue Jays officially recalled infielder Will Wagner from Triple-A Buffalo.
  • Wagner hit .268 with three home runs and 13 RBIs over 18 games for the Buffalo Bisons this season.
  • He had batted .186 with two RBIs and 11 hits in 20 major-league appearances for Toronto before his recall.
  • In a corresponding move, outfielder Alan Roden—originally recalled on May 30 after Anthony Santander’s 10-day injured-list placement—was optioned back to Triple-A after batting .206 with one homer and eight RBIs in 42 games.
  • These adjustments reflect Toronto’s approach of using Triple-A performance and injury vacancies to optimize roster depth.
