The Toronto Blue Jays have made the obvious official, activating right-fielder Jose Bautista from the 15-day disabled list in time for their series against the San Diego Padres.

Junior Lake has been designated for assignment. #BlueJays The original diagnosis of Bautista’s turf toe indicated that he could be out for the entire month of July and potentially longer, so given the unpredictable nature of the injury, the Blue Jays have come out rather fortunate.
