Good News, Not so Bad News
The Toronto Blue Jays watched A.J. Burnett throw off the mound yesterday, but Scott Downs felt some irritation in his knee:
"I think Downsie's going to be fine," general manager J.P. Ricciardi said, hours before an MRI exam proved perfectly negative. "He's had a history of tendinitis in his patella tendon and we think it just flared up. We'll see how he is (this morning) but he shouldn't have a problem jumping right back in there."
Downs is replacing Burnett in the Jays rotation until A.J. recovers from the medical procedure he underwent after scar tissue broke off in his elbow.
