Briefly

Blue Jays Select Austin Voth
Toronto selected right-hander Austin Voth’s contract from Triple-A Buffalo. To create space on the 26-man and 40-man rosters, the team optioned right-hander Tanner Andrews to Buffalo. The team also transferred catcher Alejandro Kirk from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day injured list. Kirk has been sidelined for nearly 60 days after thumb surgery in early April, so the transfer is largely procedural. Moving Kirk to the 60-day IL does not restart the injured list clock, so he remains eligible for activation once he reaches 60 total days on the shelf.
"The Blue Jays announced Wednesday that they've selected the contract of righty Austin Voth from Triple-A Buffalo. To make room on the 26-man and 40-man rosters, Toronto optioned right-hander Tanner Andrews to Buffalo and transferred catcher Alejandro Kirk from the 10-day to the 60-day IL."
"Kirk has already been out for nearly 60 days since undergoing thumb surgery in early April, so that move is largely a formality. The move to the 60-day doesn't restart his IL clock, so he'll still be eligible for activation once he reaches 60 total days on the shelf."
