Scherzer, 40, made one start for the Blue Jays before being sidelined due to right thumb inflammation. He recently completed a rehab assignment with the triple-A Buffalo Bisons.
The roster moves were announced by the Blue Jays on Wednesday afternoon, a couple of hours before Scherzer’s scheduled start against the Cleveland Guardians.
An eight-time all-star and a three-time Cy Young Award winner, Scherzer signed a one-year, US$15.5-million contract with the Blue Jays in February.
Turnbull, meanwhile, was 1-1 with a 7.11 earned-run average over three appearances for the Blue Jays this season.
