The Blue Jays assigned Andrews to Triple-A Buffalo after he cleared waivers Sunday, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Andrews was DFA'd by the Blue Jays on Thursday in order to make room on the 40-man roster for Chad Dallas. Andrews went unclaimed off waivers and will return to Buffalo, where he has a 1.29 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, five saves and a 23:15 K:BB over 21 innings this season.

Rotowire
The Blue Jays designated Andrews for assignment Thursday.
Andrews turned in a pair of scoreless outings after being selected to the active roster last week but was optioned back to Triple-A shortly thereafter. He'll now end up as the odd man out of a 40-man spot to make room for Chad Dallas, who was selected to the big-league roster in a corresponding move. Andrews owns a 1.29 ERA through 21 innings at Buffalo, which could draw interest on the waiver wire from teams in search of bullpen help.
