The Blue Jays optioned Nance to the minors Wednesday.
Nance pitched both of the last two days and three of the last four, so the Blue Jays are replacing him with a fresh bullpen arm in Brett de Geus, who was called up from Triple-A Buffalo. Unless the Blue Jays bring him back by placing another player on the injured list in a corresponding move, Nance will close the 2024 season with a 4.09 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 19:9 K:BB across 22 innings over his 20 relief appearances for Toronto.
