Yohendrick Pi\u00f1ango<\/a> and CJ Van Eyk have been recalled from the triple-A Buffalo Bisons and will be active for the Blue Jays’ game against the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday, the team announced.<\/a><\/p>\n

Jonatan Clase<\/a> was placed on the 10-day injured list with left plantar fasciitis, and L\u00e1zaro Estrada was optioned to Buffalo as the corresponding moves. <\/p>\n

Clase was a late scratch on Tuesday due to left foot discomfort, which developed during his pre-game running work,\u00a0the Blue Jays announced.<\/p>\n

Pi\u00f1ango, 24, has slashed .267\/.313\/.413 with five home runs and 20 RBIs this season in 51 major-league games. He will slot in fifth in the Blue Jays’ batting order and man left field on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

The left-handed hitting outfielder was part of Toronto’s return from the Chicago Cubs for Nate Pearson at the 2024 trade deadline. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Clase has excelled in his short time with the Blue Jays this season. The switch-hitting outfielder has two home runs, six RBIs and a .273\/.360\/.545 slash line in nine games.<\/p>\n

Clase, 24, was also acquired at the 2024 trade deadline in the package Toronto got for reliever Yimi Garc\u00eda, who later re-signed with the Blue Jays.<\/p>\n

Estrada was occupying a long-relief role for the Blue Jays and has a 4.82 ERA with six strikeouts and five walks over 9.1 innings this season.<\/p>\n

Van Eyk, a right-handed starter, can also provide length if needed. The 27-year-old made his MLB debut for the Blue Jays on July 17, tossing two scoreless innings to close out a blowout loss to the White Sox. <\/p>\n

Game 3 of the Blue Jays’ four-game series against the Rays goes Wednesday night. Coverage begins with Blue Jays Central on Sportsnet at 6:30 p.m. ET \/ 3:30 p.m. PT.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Yohendrick Pi\u00f1ango and CJ Van Eyk have been recalled from the triple-A Buffalo Bisons and will be active…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":819654,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[435],"tags":[49,48,462,82],"class_list":["post-819653","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mlb","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-mlb","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/819653","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=819653"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/819653\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/819654"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=819653"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=819653"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=819653"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
