Recalled to Toronto Payamps was recalled by the Blue Jays on Thursday.

Impact Payamps was called up in a corresponding move to Jordan Romano (elbow) landing on the injured list. He's already thrown four innings for the Blue Jays this season, allowing no earned runs while posting a 4:1 K:BB. The team will rely on Payamps in a bullpen now missing key players such as Tyler Chatwood (triceps), Julian Merryweather (oblique) and Romano, though he isn't likely to immediately earn a high-leverage role.

Returns to alt site The Blue Jays optioned Payamps to their alternate training site Monday.

Impact Payamps' second stint with the big club of the season lasted just three days. He appeared in long relief during Friday's game against the Angels, striking out three over 2.2 scoreless frames. Payamps will head back to the alternate site to make room on the 26-man roster for Robbie Ray (elbow), who was activated from the 10-day injured list ahead of his scheduled start Monday against the Yankees.

Called up by Blue Jays Payamps was recalled by the Blue Jays on Friday, Mike Wilner of the Toronto Star reports.

Impact The Blue Jays sent Payamps to their alternate training site Sunday, but he'll return to the major-league bullpen after Tyler Chatwood (triceps) was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. Payamps made his team debut against the Yankees on Saturday and allowed no hits and a walk while striking out one in 1.1 scoreless innings.

Sent to alt site The Blue Jays optioned Payamps to their alternate training site Sunday.

Impact Payamps was unlikely to be available for another day or two after he recorded four outs (on 27 pitches) in his team debut in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Yankees, so Toronto elected to swap him out in favor of a fresh arm in Tommy Milone, whose contract was selected ahead of Sunday's series finale. The 26-year-old right-hander will be eligible to rejoin Toronto in 10 days, or if the Blue Jays place another player on the injured list before then.

Claimed by Blue Jays Payamps was claimed off waivers by the Blue Jays on Saturday.

Impact Payamps has been waived four times during the offseason, but he'll return to the Blue Jays after he was recently waived by the Red Sox. The right-hander has been unable to firmly secure a roster spot to this point in the offseason, but he'll now compete for a bullpen role with Toronto heading into the regular season.

Back with Boston Payamps was claimed off waivers by the Red Sox on Monday.

Impact Payamps has had quite a busy offseason. He started it as a Diamondback before being waived in November and claimed by the Red Sox. The Blue Jays claimed him in mid-February after the Sox waived him, but he'll head right back the other direction less than two weeks later. The righty clearly doesn't have a firm grip on a roster spot but will hope to last the remainder of camp with the Red Sox as he pushes for a bullpen role.

Designated for assignment Payamps was designated for assignment by the Red Sox on Wednesday.

Impact Payamps was claimed by Boston after being designated for assignment by the Diamondbacks in November, but he'll now be cast off another 40-man roster after the Red Sox acquired right-hander Garrett Richards on Saturday. Payamps made brief appearances in the majors over the past two seasons, posting a 3.86 ERA and 1.71 WHIP over seven innings while making six relief appearances for Arizona.

DFA'd by Diamondbacks Payamps was designated for assignment by the Diamondbacks on Friday.

Impact Payamps had minimal usage in the majors in 2020, and he allowed one earned run while striking out two over three relief innings. The right-hander's removal from the 40-man roster makes room for several prospects who will now be protected from the Rule 5 draft.
