The Toronto Blue Jays placed outfielder George Springer on a short-term leave roster on Saturday after his baby was born. The arrival prompted the move, leading the club to later shift him to the family medical emergency list, which keeps him off the active roster.
To cover the vacancy, Toronto recalled outfielder Jonatan Clase. The team expects him back soon for the home game against the Giants. No firm return date has been set, and medical staff are monitoring him as the situation develops.
