Right-hander Austin Voth was designated for assignment by the Toronto Blue Jays for the second time as the club purchased the contract of right-hander Hayden Juenger on Saturday.

Voth, 33, was signed by the Blue Jays as a free agent on March 25 and called up for a single appearance of 2 2/3 innings on April 9 before he was designated for assignment. He was re-signed on April 11 and called up for a 3 1/3-inning outing Friday before another DFA.

In eight major league seasons, Voth is 17-19 with a 4.77 ERA in 209 appearances (39 starts) with four clubs, including his first five seasons with the Washington Nationals. He pitched for Chiba Lotte in Japan last season.

Juenger, 25, is set to make his major league debut after he went 1-2 with a 3.15 ERA in 17 appearances (two starts) at Triple-A Buffalo.
