Blue Jays Place Tommy Nance on 15-Day IL, Recall Adam Macko for Potential Debut

Injuries have thinned a struggling bullpen, prompting Toronto to tap prospect depth.

Overview

  • The club announced Sunday before the Tigers finale that reliever Tommy Nance went on the 15-day injured list with right forearm discomfort and that Adam Macko was recalled.
  • Left-hander Macko is active for his first big-league opportunity after starting the year with Triple-A Buffalo.
  • Macko was already on the Blue Jays’ 40-man roster, which made the call-up a straightforward swap with no extra moves.
  • The 25-year-old has worked in a bulk relief role this season and could cover innings with Spencer Miles unavailable after a 56-pitch outing.
  • Toronto sits 20-25 with a 7-14 road record, and the bullpen shuffle comes with a four-game series at the Yankees next.
