Blue Jays 2nd baseman Andres Gimenez returns to IL, pitcher Ryan Burr ready to play
Second baseman Andres Gimenez was placed on the Toronto Blue Jays' 10-day injured list on Sunday with a left ankle sprain. Gimenez left Toronto's 4-3 win over the Los Angeles Angels on Friday. He had tweaked his left ankle covering second base on a steal on Wednesday against the New York Yankees and did not play Thursday as Toronto completed a sweep of the four-game series. The move was made retroactive to Saturday. Right-handed pitcher Ryan Burr was reinstated from Toronto's 60-day injured list as his right shoulder inflammation had healed and was active for the Blue Jays matinee against the Los Angeles Angels. Gimenez, a defensive specialist, is hitting .218 with five home runs, 23 runs batted in and 10 stolen bases so far this season. It's his second stint on the IL after missing time with a right quad strain. Burr hasn't played in 2025, but he had an 0-2 record with a 4.13 earned-run average with 47 strikeouts over 32 2/3 innings last season. Right-handed reliever Lazaro Estrada was optioned to Triple-A Buffalo and outfielder Will Robertson was designated for assignment.

Blue Jays Announce Unfortunate Anthony Santander News Before Angels Game
Blue Jays Announce Unfortunate Anthony Santander News Before Angels Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Toronto Blue Jays are on top of the AL East heading into Friday night, but outfielder Anthony Santander has not played a big role in their success. The 30-year-old is slashing just .179/.273/.304 with six homers and 18 RBI in 50 games this season. Advertisement The Blue Jays signed Santander to a five-year, $92.5 million contract in January, including a club option in 2030. The veteran spent his previous eight seasons with the Baltimore Orioles and smashed 44 homers and 102 RBI last year. Santander hasn't played since May 29 due to a shoulder injury, and the Blue Jays announced some negative news on that front before Friday's bout with the Los Angeles Angels, via their social media.

It also selected and activated right-handed pitching prospect Lazaro Estrada and optioned southpaw hurler Justin Bruihl to Triple-A. Advertisement Bruihl has allowed one earned run in 3.1 innings this season, while Estrada is 2-4 with a 4.75 ERA in 15 minor-league starts. Toronto has won five straight games and is 8-2 in its last 10. The team is coming off a four-game sweep of the New York Yankees at home, which propelled it into first place. Both the Yankees and Tampa Bay Rays now trail it by one game in the standings. Southpaw pitcher Eric Lauer (4-1, 2.60 ERA) will start for the Blue Jays on Friday against Angels right-hander Kyle Hendricks (5-6, 4.66 ERA). The game will start at 7:07 p.m. EST at the Rogers Centre.
