Aaron Loup (elbow) dealing with flexor strain for Blue Jays
Toronto Blue Jays' relief pitcher Aaron Loup's is dealing with a flexor strain in his left elbow, an MRI revealed.
He'll be shut down for two weeks before being re-evaluated. Loup is still holding out hope of being ready for Opening Day, but Blue Jays' manager John Gibbons admitted it would be "real tough." The southpaw will be missed.
