Charles McAdoo - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Playing time trending back down McAdoo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

Impact After being called up from Triple-A Buffalo on Aug. 10, McAdoo started in 11 of the Blue Jays' ensuing 13 games, slashing .308/.364/.436 with one home run, one stolen base, seven RBI and four runs during that stretch. Despite acquitting himself well at the plate, McAdoo finds himself on the bench for a second straight game. McAdoo could be in line for a more limited role moving forward following Vladimir Guerrero's recent return from a concussion.

Filling in for Guerrero at first base McAdoo will start at first base and bat second in Sunday's game against the Yankees.

Impact McAdoo will remain in the lineup for the sixth time in seven games, covering first base for the second day in a row after splitting time between third base and left field in his prior four starts. With the Blue Jays placing Vladimir Guerrero (concussion) on the 7-day injured list Saturday, McAdoo could have an extended runway at first base, though Kazuma Okamoto could also move across the diamond to help fill in for Guerrero. Since being recalled from Triple-A Buffalo on Monday, McAdoo has gone 5-for-16 with a home run, a double, three walks and four RBI.

Homers in return McAdoo went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's 2-1 win over the Red Sox.

Impact In his first major-league game since June 19, McAdoo broke a scoreless tie with a solo blast off Sonny Gray in the fifth inning. He also drew a walk in the sixth and was lifted for Ernie Clement as a defensive replacement in the eighth. The 24-year-old has gone just 5-for-27 with two homers in nine games with the Blue Jays but posted a solid .832 OPS with 16 homers and 12 steals across 385 plate appearances with Triple-A Buffalo this season.

Returns to majors The Blue Jays recalled McAdoo from Triple-A Buffalo on Monday.

Impact Toronto optioned Davis Schneider to Triple-A to open up a spot on the active roster for McAdoo. Like Schneider before him, McAdoo protects to serve as a utility player and will likely see most of his playing time against left-handed pitching. McAdoo was previously up with the Blue Jays for about three weeks earlier this season, appearing in eight games while going 4-for-25 with one home run, three RBI and two runs.

Sent down to Triple-A The Blue Jays optioned McAdoo to Triple-A Buffalo on Saturday.

Impact The 24-year-old will end up as the odd man out of a roster spot following Daulton Varsho's (wrist) return from the injured list. McAdoo went just 4-for-25 at the plate across eight games during his stint in the big leagues but could still return to the majors later this season if the Blue Jays run into problems with their infield depth.

MAY 31 • SPORTSKEEDA.COM

Homers in major-league debut McAdoo went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run during the Blue Jays' 6-5 win over the Orioles on Friday.

Impact One day after being called up from Triple-A Buffalo, McAdoo was in a major-league starting lineup for the first time in his career, as he manned second base while batting sixth in Friday's AL East contest. He struck out in his first plate appearance before fouling out in the fifth, but McAdoo made his mark in the seventh inning with a two-run homer off Trevor Rogers to reduce Toronto's deficit to 5-4. Even though he started at second base, McAdoo has played mostly first and third during his minor-league career, so his presence gives the Blue Jays a valuable utility man while Lenyn Sosa (wrist) and Addison Barger (elbow) are on the IL.
