Zach Pop has been shut down from throwing after experience right elbow inflammation.
Pop will be shut down for 7-10 days according to Blue Jays manager John Schneider, but an MRI showed no structural damage. The 28-year-old is now likely to open the season on the injured list, but assuming the inflammation subsides — a risky bet based on how this often goes — there’s a chance he’ll be back near the end of April.
