    To make room for Mayza on the roster, the Blue Jays have optioned Canadian right-hander Zach Pop to triple-A Buffalo.

    Mayza has been out since dislocating his right shoulder on Aug. 6. Following an attempt to grab a bunted ball during a safety squeeze play, he collided with Minnesota Twins base runner Nick Gordon.

    One of the key arms in the Toronto bullpen all season, Mayza is 5-0 with a 2.88 ERA, 27 strikeouts and nine walks in 34.1 innings this season.

    Pop, acquired from the Miami Marlins at the trade deadline, has a 2.70 ERA in 6.2 innings for Toronto.
