Blue Jays' Villanueva activated from DL
BALTIMORE -- The Toronto Blue Jays have activated right-hander Carlos Villanueva from the 15-day disabled list and designated reliever Brian Tallet for assignment.
Toronto announced the moves before Wednesday's game at Baltimore.
Villanueva was placed on the DL on Aug. 4 with a sore right forearm. He is 6-3 with a 4.24 ERA in 26 games, 13 starts.
Tallet was seeking his first big league save on Tuesday night, but instead surrendered two 10th-inning runs in a 6-5 loss to the Orioles.
