The Blue Jays designated Kennedy for assignment Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Kennedy was cut loose from the 40-man roster to make room for Andres Gimenez (ankle), who was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Tuesday. Kennedy was not getting much playing time in Toronto as he appeared in just six of the 11 games he was active for. Across 14 plate appearances, the 26-year-old went 1-for-12 in his short stint with the Blue Jays.
