Gomes is hitting .340 in 65 games with Las Vegas this season with 11 home runs, 47 RBIs and 26 doubles.

To make room on the roster, Toronto optioned right-handed reliever Sam Dyson to double-A New Hampshire.

Dyson made just two relief appearances for Toronto and allowed three earned runs without finishing an inning.

The Blue Jays open a three-game series in Boston on Friday.
