Dillon Tate News: Added to big-league bullpen

The Blue Jays recalled Tate from Triple-A Buffalo on Sunday.

Tate's call-up was one of a series of Toronto roster moves involving relievers Sunday, as fellow righty Paxton Schultz was also summoned while Jacob Barnes was DFA'd and Nick Sandlin (lat) was placed on the 15-day IL. Tate tossed 36.2 innings over 33 regular-season games with Baltimore and Toronto last season and finished with a 4.66 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 27:12 K:BB while picking up a win, a save and three holds. He'll likely have a low-leverage role while up with the big club.
