Will Wagner has been placed on the Toronto Blue Jays’ restricted list, taking a day off to attend his father Billy Wagner's Hall of Fame induction. This decision opens a roster spot for Alan Roden, who has been recalled from the triple-A Buffalo Bisons. Will Wagner's batting average of .243 with a modest six RBIs in 36 games indicates he is still finding his footing in his second MLB season. In contrast, Roden has struggled at the plate with a .206 average in his brief appearances with the Blue Jays this year.

Billy Wagner, who tallied an impressive 422 saves over his 16-year career, is being honored alongside Ichiro Suzuki and CC Sabathia, both first-ballot inductees. Wagner's election marks a significant milestone as he garnered 82.5% of the votes on his 10th ballot.
