TORONTO — Right-handed reliever Adam Cimber was placed on the 15-day injured list by the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday.

The sidearmer was put on the IL with a rhomboid strain in his throwing arm.

Hard-throwing righty Nate Pearson was recalled from Toronto’s triple-A affiliate in Buffalo, N.Y. in a corresponding move.

Pearson was available out of the bullpen on Monday night as the Blue Jays hosted the Chicago White Sox.

Cimber has a 4.50 earned-run average over 10 innings this season with six strikeouts.

Pearson has yet to play for Toronto this year.
