The Toronto Blue Jays recalled left-hander Josh Fleming from Triple-A Buffalo to give the bullpen a fresh arm in advance of a much-anticipated three-game home series that starts Monday against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
In a corresponding move, the Blue Jays designated right-hander Austin Voth for assignment.
Fleming, who was signed as a free agent in the offseason, started his only game at Buffalo and gave up one run over 3 2/3 innings while throwing 57 pitches. He can provide length out of the bullpen with Toronto set to start Max Scherzer in the opening game of the series.
Fleming, 29, did not pitch in the major leagues last season but from 2020-24, he was 20-14 with a 4.77 ERA for the Tampa Bay Rays (2020-23) and Pittsburgh Pirates (2024).
Voth, 33, gave up one run over 2 2/3 innings of his lone appearance for the Blue Jays on Sunday. He is 17-19 with a 4.69 ERA in 208 appearances (39 starts) over eight major league seasons with four different clubs.
The Blue Jays enter the World Series rematch on a four-game losing streak after they were swept in a three-game road series by the Chicago White Sox. The bullpen received heavy usage in the series.
