Blue Jays optioned Davis Schneider to Triple-A Buffalo.

As expected, Schneider heads back to the minors with slugging prospect Sean Keys ascending to the big leagues. The 27-year-old has hit just .153/.282/.296 with three homers and one steal in 118 plate appearances over 49 games this season. His multi-position versatility is valuable in a bench role, but he simply hasn’t hit enough for the Blue Jays to justify keeping him around as they attempt to make a playoff push.
