  "account": "TORONTO – The Toronto Blue Jays have recalled pitcher CJ Van Eyk from their triple-A Buffalo affiliate before their season opener against the Seattle Mariners. The 27-year-old right-hander was designated for assignment, however, as the team opted to bring him back to the big leagues. Van Eyk appeared in three games for Toronto earlier in the season, tallying a 0-1 record and a 4.76 earned-run average. In 21 appearances for Buffalo, he posted a 6-3 mark with a 3.79 ERA. The Blue Jays selected Van Eyk with the 42nd overall pick of the 2020 draft.",
