RHP Braydon Fisher has been optioned to Buffalo per Blue Jays
Many thought this was a very surprising move by the Blue Jays since Fisher has been pitching very well with his 3.03 ERA on the season in 38.2 innings pitched.
Most believed that the team would look to either DFA Tommy Nance or option Mason Fluharty instead since their numbers have been worse.
Interesting decision to option Fisher, who has options, to make room for Shane Bieber.
Would've thought it would have been Nance (out of options) or Fluharty (has options). #BlueJays

Hopefully the Blue Jays made the right decision with this and it does not end up costing their a game or two.
