The Toronto Blue Jays just shook up their bullpen before Sunday's series finale in Chicago. They optioned relievers, Brendan Little and Lazaro Estrada to triple A Buffalo, then called up Joe Man supply, and Austin Voth to the big league roster. To clear spots on the 40-man roster, Cody Ponds and Anthony Santander got moved to the 60-day injured list. Little's been rough this year, surrendering 10 earned runs in just three and two-thirds innings while picking up two losses. Estrada came up earlier this week for bulk work and tossed four hitless innings Saturday, but he threw 66 pitches so they want fresh legs now. These moves come after Little coughed up the lead with two homers to lefties yesterday, highlighting the bullpen struggles. Fans and analysts see it as a quick fix to stabilize things late in games, especially with Little heading down to rebuild his first half 2000. 25 Groove, where he fans 65 and 44 and one-third frames. Man supply, a 35-year-old lefty and former All-Star signed a minor league deal this spring after a bumpy 2025 with Arizona.

He's looked sharp and triple A this season, one earned run in three and two-thirds innings with three strikeouts. Voth rounds out the vets, lasting the majors back in 2024 with Seattle, then pitched in Japan in 2025. His one triple A outing this year gave up two runs in three innings. Now the Jays roll into the finale with these reinforcements locked and loaded. This has been Calgary News today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story.
