Summoned from Buffalo Toronto recalled Lee from Triple-A Buffalo on Tuesday, per Keegan Matheson of MLB.com.

Impact Just four days after being optioned to Buffalo, Lee will rejoin the big-league club on Tuesday. In five appearances with Toronto this year, the 27-year-old owns a 5.06 ERA, 1.50 WHIP, 2:5 K:BB and one save through 5.1 innings. The Blue Jays sent Jameson Taillon to the 15-day IL, clearing a spot on the active roster for Lee.

Moved to Triple-A The Blue Jays optioned Lee to Triple-A Buffalo on Friday.

Impact The move makes room on the Blue Jays' 26-man roster for newcomer Matt Waldron. Lee appeared in two games out of Toronto's bullpen since being recalled Wednesday, allowing one unearned run on one hit and one walk while striking out one batter across two frames. He has spent most of the 2026 season in Triple-A, where he has a 2.20 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, five saves and a 40:18 K:BB over 45 innings.

Collects 10th-inning save Lee recorded his first career big-league save Wednesday, giving up one unearned run on one hit in the 10th inning of a 5-4 win over the Astros. He didn't walk or strike out a batte...

Impact Tyler Rogers worked the eighth inning and Louis Varland the ninth to keep the game tied at 3-3, leaving Lee as the surprise recipient of a save chance after the Blue Jays took a lead in the top of the 10th. The right-hander did allow the phantom runner to score on a Yordan Alvarez single, but Lee wound up needing just five pitches (all strikes) to finish things out. While he's had success at Triple-A Buffalo this season, Lee's 6.23 ERA, 1.62 WHIP and 1:4 K:BB through 4.1 MLB innings this season will limit him to a lower-leverage role for the most part.
