The Toronto Blue Jays announced that they have made a couple roster moves which involve Paxton Schultz and Spencer Turnbull.

Fans have been wondering over the last few days what would happen with Turnbull after a few terrible starts in Triple-A which led many to believe that they would end up releasing him instead of bring him up which they had to do because of a clause in his contract.

Blue Jays option Paxton Schultz and call up Spencer Turnbull

The Blue Jays announce this evening that they have called up Spencer Turnbull from Triple-A and have consequently sent Paxton Schultz back down to Triple-A.

ROSTER MOVES:

RHP Spencer Turnbull has been recalled from Triple-A

RHP Paxton Schultz has been optioned to Triple-A

The big surprise in all of this is because Turnbull was awful during his time in Triple-A as he had a 7.13 ERA but since the 35 day ramp up window in his contract was coming to an end the Blue Jays had to either bring him up or release him.

The #BlueJays have activated RHP Spencer Turnbull, after his 35-day window to ramp up ended. Paxton Schultz to AAA.

We'll see what role Turnbull begins in.

#BlueJays announce that they've called up Spencer Turnbull. Paxton Schultz has been optioned.

Turnbull has been working to get his velocity back up and has posted a 7.13 ERA over 5 starts in the minors.

The other side of this is that Schultz has been unreal for the Blue Jays since being called up as he had a 3.06 ERA in 17.2 innings pitched and did not deserve to get optioned.

It will be interesting to see how Turnbull pitches in his first appearance with the Blue Jays.
