Wagner was placed on the 60-day injured list with left knee inflammation. He missed the last two games of Toronto’s three-game sweep of St. Louis last weekend.

Wagner, who had eight hits over his first four major-league games after making his debut Aug. 12, hit .305 with two homers and 11 RBIs over 82 at-bats. He had a five-hit game in a 15-0 win over Minnesota on Aug. 31.

Varsho was placed on the 10-day IL retroactive to Saturday with a right shoulder strain. He is batting .214 with 18 home runs and 58 RBIs.

The Blue Jays also recalled outfielder Steward Berroa from the Bisons and claimed right-handed pitcher Nick Robertson off waivers from the Los Angeles Angels and assigned him to Buffalo.
