Via Bastain at MLB.com On Wedneday, right-hander Casey Janssen was placed on the 15-day disabled list with inflammation in his throwing shoulder — the same one that required surgery two springs ago and cost him all of last season. The Blue Jays have promoted lefty Brad Mills to take Janssen’s turn in the rotation on Thursday [...]

Casey Janssen to the DL; Brad Mills to Start for the Jays on Thursday?

I still haven't heard anything on Downs, but Jordan Bastian has tweeted that Casey Janssen is going on the DL with right shoulder inflammation and that Brad Mills will be called up to take his place and pitch on Thursday afternoon. This likely has more to do with the short notice and whose turn it is than Mills' performance for Las Vegas. Mills is 1-8, with a 4.48 ERA and a 65/35 K/BB ratio over 76 1/3 innings.

After losing nine straight, the Jays faced Boston at home on Friday night, up against the pitcher and team who started the losing streak. There have been some analysts who have tried to justify the streak by saying Tim Wakefield's knuckleballs threw the bats off course. I think this is a poor excuse for poor baseball played by the Jays over the road-trip. The Blue Jays were getting a lot of hi...

And so it begins?

After being swept by Boston, and losing 1-0 to the Atlanta Braves last night, the long awaited fall from grace might be coming into fruition. There are many skeptics (I guess me being one of them) that think this Jays team is not for real, and were waiting for the numbers to average out. The hitters had been overachieving all season, in the meanwhile carrying an above average starting rotation. But these last four games have looked a lot like the uninspired Jays from last season. Lets tak...
