Injury Bug Bites The Blue Jays Again As Brett Lawrie Hurtles Into Camera Well And Emerges Hurt

With eight players already on the disabled list—the most recent being slugger Jose Bautista Monday night—the Toronto Blue Jays can ill afford to lose another star to injury. Any presumption of caution, though, was thrown to the wind today as during the Jays' game at Yankee Stadium third baseman Brett Lawrie chased a foul ball into a concrete camera well, suffering a leg injury and leaving the game because of it. X-rays turned out negative, and he's diagnosed with a brused right calf according to Steve Zipay, but we encourage Toronto players from here on out to heed the words of Sergeant Esterhaus and be careful out there.
