Blue Jays outfielder Addison Barger will be sidelined longer due to a stress reaction in his back, following an elbow injury that kept him out since early May. Manager John Schneider indicated that Barger will be shut down for a couple of weeks, potentially leading to a 60-day IL move. This setback compounds the team’s struggles with injuries, as Toronto has faced significant player absences, impacting their performance. With Barger out, Yohendrick Piñango will see more playing time, further stressing an already depleted outfield.
