The Toronto Blue Jays placed second baseman Lenyn Sosa on the 10-day injured list on Thursday because of a right wrist contusion after he was hit by a pitch on Tuesday.

The move was retroactive to Wednesday. In a corresponding move, the Blue Jays selected the contract of infielder Charles McAdoo, one of the top prospects in the organization, from Triple-A Buffalo.

Sosa, 26, was hit by a pitch from Miami starter Sandy Alcantara in the Blue Jays' 8-1 home win on Tuesday. He is batting .188 (15-for-80) with one home run and six RBIs in 28 games for the Blue Jays. He started the season with the Chicago White Sox and batted .212 (7-for-33) in 12 games.

For his career, Sosa is a .241 hitter with 38 homers and 134 RBIs in 343 regular-season games for the White Sox (2022-26) and Blue Jays.

Toronto acquired Sosa from Chicago on April 13 for minor league outfielder Jordan Rich and future considerations.

McAdoo, 24, was batting .250 with eight homers and 27 RBIs in 50 games at Buffalo. He is ranked No. 26 in the Toronto organization by MLB Pipeline and has not played in the majors.

"(McAdoo) can play third, first. He's played a little bit of second the last couple of weeks in Triple-A," Toronto manager John Schneider said. "He can run, but I think just putting together a pretty good offensive year. So, (we'll) take a look at it for sure."

The Pittsburgh Pirates selected McAdoo in the 13th round of the 2023 MLB Draft out of San Jose State.

In other moves on Thursday, the Blue Jays optioned right-hander Chase Lee to Buffalo, activated righty Connor Seabold to the major league roster and transferred righty Lazaro Estrada (right shoulder impingement) from the 15- to the 60-day IL to create a space on the 40-man roster.

Toronto acquired Seabold on Wednesday from the Detroit Tigers for minor league left-hander Juanmi Vasquez.

Lee, 27, had an 8.10 ERA with four walks and one strikeout in 3 1/3 innings over three relief appearances for Toronto.

Seabold, 30, was 1-0 with a 3.45 ERA, five walks and 14 strikeouts in 15 2/3 innings this season for the Tigers.
