The Toronto Blue Jays are making some changes to the roster ahead of their series against the Texas Rangers.
The team announced Friday it had recalled right-hander Yerry Rodriguez from triple-A Buffalo, optioning Ryan Burr in a subsequent move.
The team also announced that Rodriguez will be available for Friday’s game against the Rangers.
Since being acquired by the Blue Jays on June 30, Rodriguez has played with triple-A Buffalo, where he had a 1.80 ERA with eight strikeouts and nine walks over 5.0 innings of work.
Burr, 30, has a 5.40 ERA with nine strikeouts and four walks across 10.0 innings with the Blue Jays this season. He was traded to the Blue Jays from the Chicago White Sox on May 30 in exchange for cash considerations.
The Blue Jays will take on the Rangers on Friday night in an attempt to bounce back from a 13-0 loss on Thursday. Action starts at 7:07 p.m. ET / 4:07 p.m. PT.
