Blue Jays' Luke Bard: Reassigned to minor-league camp

Bard was reassigned to minor-league camp by the Blue Jays on Saturday, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Bard was given a chance to win a spot in the Toronto bullpen after signing as a non-roster invitee back in February. The right-hander struggled in his exhibition appearances, however, with a 4.50 ERA and 1.50 WHIP in six innings of work in the Grapefruit League. Assuming he stays on the roster, Bard will head to Triple-A Buffalo to provide organizational pitching depth in 2023.
