Blue Jays manager John Schneider admitted that Gimenez needed an MRI last night and that they are still waiting on the results.
Schneider also added that Gimenez was already hurt but they had him play because they did not think the injury was too bad which ended up being a big mistake.
Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Andres Gimenez is «going to get an MRI tonight and just see what's going on» with the ankle.
The Blue Jays thought «we had kind of dodged a bullet there with how he was feeling earlier» in the day. First-to-third run may have changed that.
