The Toronto Blue Jays added depth at catcher for the stretch run by re-acquiring veteran switch-hitter Dioner Navarro from the Chicago White Sox on Friday.

 

The Blue Jays sent minor league left-hander Colton Turner to Chicago in the waiver deal. Navarro is likely to be the backup in Toronto behind Russell Martin.

 

The 32-year-old Navarro spent two seasons with the Blue Jays before signing a one-year, $4 million deal with the White Sox as a free agent in December. He has struggled this season, hitting .210 with six homers and 32 RBIs in 85 games.

 

Toronto entered play Friday tied with Boston atop the AL East.

 

Navarro is expected to join the Blue Jays in Baltimore on Monday.
