The Blue Jays recalled Tate from Triple-A Buffalo on Wednesday. Tate posted a 4.59 ERA and 1.41 WHIP through 33.1 innings with the Orioles before being DFA'd by the club in August. However, he's given up just one run over five innings since joining the Jays organization Sept. 1, and he'll now return to the majors to give Toronto's bullpen a fresh arm. Luis Frias was optioned to Buffalo in a corresponding move.

The Blue Jays claimed Tate off waivers from the Orioles and optioned him to Triple-A Buffalo on Sunday. Toronto designated right-hander Paolo Espino for assignment to make room on the 40-man roster for Tate, who had made 186 relief appearances for the Orioles over parts of five of the last six seasons. He had been a trusted setup option for Baltimore from 2020 through 2022, but after spending the entire 2023 campaign on the injured list while recovering from a flexor strain, Tate has struggled to bounce back in 2024. He turned in a 4.59 ERA and 1.41 WHIP in 33.1 innings with the Orioles before being designated for assignment last week.

The Orioles designated Tate for assignment Wednesday, Dan Connolly of The Athletic reports. The move clears a 40-man roster spot for waiver claim Forrest Wall. Tate, 30, held a 3.69 ERA and saved eight games as one of Baltimore's most-trusted relievers between the 2021 and 2022 seasons, but he missed all of 2023 with a flexor strain and hasn't been able to bounce back in 2024 with a 4.59 ERA and 23:9 K:BB over 33.1 frames.
