The Blue Jays optioned Jimenez to Triple-A Buffalo on Sunday.
Though the Blue Jays brought back Alejandro Kirk (concussion) from the 7-day injured list Sunday, Tyler Heineman is day-to-day with a head injury, so the team will carry a third backstop in Ali Sanchez. As a result, Jimenez ended up being the roster casualty. The 24-year-old infielder had been seeing sparse playing time, making just one start over the previous 10 contests.
