Overview
- The Blue Jays officially selected Charles McAdoo's contract Thursday and placed infielder Lenyn Sosa on the 10-day injured list to open a roster spot.
- McAdoo earned the call after hitting .250/.356/.436 with a .792 OPS, eight home runs and 27 RBIs in 49 Triple-A games for Buffalo this season.
- Scouting reports describe McAdoo as a right-handed hitter with above-average power and improved plate discipline but lingering contact and defensive consistency issues.
- McAdoo can play first, second and third base, which gives Toronto positional flexibility, but his first major-league appearance is pending and he did not start the first game after the promotion.
- The move comes as the club manages multiple roster changes, including moves to the 60-day injured list for other players and a recent trade for reliever Connor Seabold, which together shape how the Blue Jays will use McAdoo in the near term.
