Blue Jays announce more roster moves

After picking the save in Tuesday's game, reliever Nick Roberston was optioned to Triple-A Buffalo. Additionally pitchers Braydon Fisher and Ryan Jennings and catcher Jacob Sharp were re-assigned to minor league camp.

Roberston was optioned as he was already on the Blue Jays 40-man roster, while the other were not and thus only had to be re-assigned.

Roberston made a single appearance in the majors for the Blue Jays last season after being claimed off waivers by the Angels. He pitched a scoreless inning. He also appeared in eight games for the Cardinals in 2024 and split 2023 between the Dodgers and Red Sox.

His lone appearance in Spring Training was in Tuesday's game against the Twins, pitching a scoreless ninth and picking up the save.

Sharp, who was acquired at the deadline last in the deal that sent Yimi Garcia to Seattle, managed to get into three games. He went 0-2 with two walks, one strikeout and a run scored. He also showed great promise with his pitch framing abilities.

Fisher, who came over from the Dodgers in a June trade for Cavan Biggio, impressed this spring. In four games, he had a sparkling 1.93 ERA to go with seven strikeouts in 4.2 innings. He will likely start the year at Triple-A and could be a candidate to receive a call-up at some point during the season.

Jennings, who was recently named the Blue Jays minor league pitcher of the year, also showed some promise this spring. A 4th round draft pick by the club in 2022, he picked up a win in three appearances to go along with a 1.93 ERA and five strikeouts in 4.2 innings.

The Blue Jays now have 51 players remaining at camp.
