The Toronto Blue Jays have reinstated first baseman Justin Turner from the paternity list.
Toronto Blue Jays' Justin Turner dashes down the first base line on his RBI single during the fourth inning of a baseball game against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park, Monday, June 24, 2024, in Boston. Turner was placed on the paternity list on Thursday and missed the Jays' last three games. He is active for Saturday afternoon's matchup against the Mariners in Seattle.
Meanwhile, relief pitcher Tim Mayza cleared waivers on Saturday. Mayza was designated for assignment and sent to the triple-A Buffalo Bisons by Toronto, with right-hander Jose Cuas recalled to take his place on June 29. Because Mayza is considered a veteran under Major League Baseball's collective agreement, he had to clear waivers before being able to report to Toronto's minor league team.
The 32-year-old Mayza, who has spent his entire seven-year career with the Blue Jays, had a career-best 1.52 earned-run average in 69 showings in 2023. He had an 0-1 record this season with an 8.03 earned-run average over 24 2/3 innings with just 16 strikeouts.From the World Series to the Paralympics, here's a look at some of the more famous sports cheating scandals in history.
