The Blue Jays have activated OF Jose Bautista from the 15-day DL and designated OF Junior Lake for assignment to make room on the roster. Bautista had been out since June 16th with a toe injury. (Gregor Chisholm on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Bautista hadn't done much during his Triple-A rehab assignment with Buffalo (2-for-14 with three strikeouts) but the Jays brass believes he's physically ready. He will likely slot into the leadoff spot again but will probably DH right away rather than play the field. Bautista was batting .230 with 12 HR and 41 RBI before the injury.
