BUFFALO, N.Y. — The Toronto Blue Jays have suspended Canadian outfielder Dalton Pompey for violating club policy.

Pompey’s suspension was confirmed by a Blue Jays spokesperson Thursday, but no specific reason for the discipline was given.

The spokesperson said Pompey, from Mississauga, Ont., should be back with the team in a few days.

Pompey last played for the Buffalo Bisons, Toronto’s triple-A affiliate, in a 2-1 win in Indianapolis on Sunday.

He walked in the first inning and made a catch in left field before Billy McKinney pinch hit for him in the second.
