Edwin Encarnacion went 2-for-3 with a three-run double and a run scored in Monday's win over the Rays.
The bases-loaded double off Josh Lueke put the Blue Jays ahead in the bottom of the seventh inning. Encarnacion has four multi-hit games in his last six and has pulled his batting up from .218 to .255 on the year.
Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said Monday that Anthony Gose will not be an everyday player.
The talented 22-year-old outfielder was promoted from Triple-A Buffalo on Monday morning but isn't likely to hold much value in standard mixed fantasy leagues. Gibbons said Gose will "help out on defense" and as a pinch-runner. He will not make very many starts.
Blue Jays recalled OF Anthony Gose from Triple-A Buffalo.
Gose batted .223/.303/.319 in 189 plate appearances last season with Toronto. The 22-year-old has good speed and some raw power, but he is not a polished enough hitter at this point to make a big impact in the majors. He can be ignored in most mixed formats.
Blue Jays optioned RHP Mickey Storey to Triple-A Buffalo.
Storey allowed three earned runs in 3 2/3 innings during his 10-day stint with Toronto. He'll be back eventually.
Blue Jays transferred RHP Sergio Santos from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list.
The move was made in order to clear room on the 40-man roster for Thad Weber. Santos will be out until after the All-Star break following surgery to remove bone chips and spurs from his right elbow.
Blue Jays claimed RHP Thad Weber off waivers from the Padres, optioned him to Triple-A Buffalo.
Alex Anthopoulos is at it again. Weber was designated for assignment by the Padres on Friday, but it didn't take him long to find a new home. He'll represent depth in the minors.
Maicer Izturis went 1-for-4 with a single in Saturday's loss to the Yankees.
Izturis isn't walking or making contact this season, and you already know his swing is punchless. Toronto was hoping for more than a .218/.242/.331 slash line when they signed Izturis from the Angels over the winter to a three-year, $9 million deal and the Jays recently sat him in three of four games.
