The Blue Jays have outrighted lefty Andrew Albers off of the 40-man roster, the club announced (via Brendan Kennedy of the Toronto Star, on Twitter).
Albers, 29, has thrown just 2 2/3 innings in a single appearance at the big league level this year, allowing a single earned run while picking up one strikeout and issuing two walks. His only prior experience in the majors came in 2013 with the Twins, when he made ten starts and put up a 4.05 ERA.
The southpaw spent last year pitching in Korea. He has worked mostly at Triple-A Buffalo since returning to North America, throwing 62 1/3 innings of 4.
