08:45 AM ET 07.17 | With one out in a 2-2 tie, Jose Bautista watched New York reliever David Robertson???s first two offerings out of the strike zone, then lashed the next pitch about 400 feet, but foul, into the left field stands. As he completed his swing, Bautista grimaced in obvious pain and clutched at his left wrist. He went to his knees as trainer George Poulos came out of the Toronto dugout. After a moment???s conference, Bautista was pulled from the game, still in obvious pain and still holding on to his left wrist. ???On the swing after the 2-0 fastball, Jose felt a sensation in his left wrist,??? said Jays manager John Farrell. ???The (medical) report, so far, is that X-rays were negative but he has to go through testing and imaging (Tuesday) before we have a real read on what he???s dealing with.??? Unofficially, the club believes Bautista is dealing with a tendon issue.

Obviously, this sucks for the Jays. Hope the injury isn't too serious. It does mean that the Jays will have a chance to call Gose up to see how he handles major league pitching. It might even make them sellers (they could get good value for Darren Oliver and Yunel Escobar).

For unknown reasons this site replaces an apostrophe with 3 question marks. It is annoying, but not a fatal flaw.

There are worse flaws

Totally sucks...I wonder what the record is for starting players on injured reserve in a year?

It's a copy/paste artifact.

The answer to your second question: nobody edits it.

The Jays just became sellers.

I would love to see the Jays get rid of Escobar. Play Vizquel every other day with the Cuban kid in Las Vegas
