The Toronto Blue Jays have reinstated left-hander Anthony Kay from the 10-day injured list and optioned him to triple-A Buffalo.

Kay was placed on the injured list back on May 27 (effective May 22) with a left fourth digit blister. Back then, Kay was initially optioned to Triple-A but the team opted to place him on the major-league 10-day IL allowing him to earn a big-league salary and accrue service time while he recovered.

The 26-year-old is 0-2 with a 6.62 ERA in 17.2 innings in five appearances so far this season.
