"Yimi Garcia's injury adds to the Blue Jays' bullpen woes, as he was a key setup option with a strong 3.15 ERA this season."
"After a cortisone shot for his shoulder, Garcia will be sidelined for several days, leaving the team's bullpen depth further compromised."
"Manager John Schneider noted that a more definitive recovery timeline for Garcia won't be established until he resumes throwing."
"Erik Swanson is set for a rehab outing, potentially bolstering the Blue Jays' bullpen as they navigate several injuries this season."
Yimi Garcia of the Blue Jays has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to a right shoulder impingement, following a cortisone shot to aid in recovery. Manager John Schneider indicated that Garcia's ability to return will depend on how he responds once he starts throwing again. Despite a solid performance this season with a 3.15 ERA and strong strikeout rates, Garcia's absence is a blow to a bullpen already struggling with injuries, including Erik Swanson, who is nearing a return, and Ryan Burr, who's still out of action.
