Blue Jays' Marco Estrada hits disabled list
The Toronto Blue Jays placed pitcher Marco Estrada on the 15-day disabled list with back discomfort.
The Jays are expecting Estrada to return for their first post-All-Star break homestand. They were initially hoping that he would be able to pitch through this injury, but despite receiving a cortisone shot on Tuesday, the veteran is not yet ready to toe the rubber. Drew Hutchison will start in his place against the Detroit Tigers on Thursday.
Hutchison was re-called on Saturday and pitched one inning of relief against the Cleveland Indians that same day, allowing two runs on three hits. He'll face a Detroit lineup that owns the seventh-best team wOBA (.330) this season, while scoring the 10th most runs.
