The Toronto Blue Jays placed right-hander Yimi Garcia on the 15-day injured list with a sprained left ankle and recalled right-hander Robinson Pina from Triple-A Buffalo on Saturday.

Garcia, 34, is 1-2 with a 3.86 ERA in 22 relief appearances for the Blue Jays. In 11 seasons with five different clubs, including his first five with the Los Angeles Dodgers, Garcia is 23-31 with a 3.61 ERA in 436 appearances (one start).

Pina, 26, made his major league debut June 20 as a member of the Miami Marlins and went one inning in his only outing, giving up a home run to the Atlanta Braves' Austin Riley. Pina was traded to the Blue Jays on June 24.
