The Toronto Blue Jays are promoting infield prospect Orelvis Martinez to triple-A Buffalo.
The 21-year-old shortstop/third baseman is Toronto's fourth-ranked prospect.
Playing with double-A New Hampshire for the second year in a row to this point, Martinez is slashing .226/.339/.485 with 17 homers and 46 RBI in 70 games.
His slashing numbers are all better than last year.
The Dominican could make his triple-A debut Tuesday in Syracuse against the Mets.
