The Toronto Blue Jays announce some brutal roster moves this evening as they have placed relief pitcher Ryan Burr on 60 day IL.
The Blue Jays recently sent Nick Sandlin who just returned from injury back on 15 day IL and now with this on top of it the Blue Jays bullpen is seriously struggling with injuries.
Blue Jays place pitcher Ryan Burr on 60 day IL
The Blue Jays announced ahead of their game against the Athletics tonight that they have called up pitcher Tommy Nance after placing Burr on 60 day IL with a rotator cuff injury.
ROSTER MOVES:
RHP Tommy Nance selected to the Major League roster and will be active tonight
RHP Ryan Burr (right shoulder rotator cuff strain) placed on 60-day IL

RHP Ryan Burr (right shoulder rotator cuff strain) placed on 60-day IL
Tommy Nance selected to MLB roster. Ryan Burr on IL - 60-day with a rotator cuff strain.
The Blue Jays have been looking at a starting pitcher for the trade deadline but it looks like they might not have a choice but to also look at adding a few bullpen arms with all the injuries they have.
Burr and Sandlin both going down after just returning not too long ago is very tough for the Blue Jays because many thought they might finally start to have a healthy bullpen.
Since Burr has been placed on 60 day IL the chances of him returning before the last playoffs are very slim but hopefully his injury is not as bad as it seems to be at the moment.
