Maile will join the Blue Jays' Triple-A Buffalo affiliate after being designated for assignment by the Rays, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

The Blue Jays, who have a 40-man spot open, decided to claim Maile off waivers Thursday after he was designated for assignment last week by the Rays, who decided to open the season with Derek Norris and Jesus Sucre behind the dish instead. He'll see a similar situation in Toronto, as Russell Martin and Jarrod Saltalamacchia have the two catcher spots locked down, sending the 26-year-old to Triple-A Buffalo, where he'll likely serve as organizational depth in 2017.
