A big bullpen arm is back with the Blue Jays.

Reliever Rafael Dolis was activated off the 10-day injured list, the Blue Jays announced Sunday. 

Dolis last pitched on June 16 at Yankees Stadium, but left the game with a finger injury before recording an out. Left-handed pitcher Nick Allgeyer was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move. 

While Dolis wasn't phenomenal before hitting the injured list -- pitching to a 5.14 ERA with 7.3 BB/9 -- his return is crucial to stabilizing one of baseball's shakier bullpens. 

Other relievers are nearing returns too. Lefty Ryan Borucki -- who's been out since May 7 with a forearm injury -- threw live batting practice Saturday and will start a rehab assignment shortly.
