Blue Jays Place Nick Sandlin on 15-Day IL with Elbow Inflammation

News summary

The Toronto Blue Jays have placed right-handed reliever Nick Sandlin on the 15-day injured list due to right elbow inflammation, marking his second arm injury this season after previously missing two months with a lat strain. Sandlin had recently returned on June 20 and posted a solid 2.20 ERA across 19 appearances, including a 2.16 ERA and six strikeouts over 8.1 innings in his latest stint. To fill his roster spot, the Blue Jays recalled left-handed pitcher Justin Bruihl from Triple-A Buffalo, who has appeared in four games for Toronto this season with a 2.70 ERA in 3.1 innings pitched. Bruihl, signed as a free agent in the offseason, had been pitching primarily in the minors but was activated in time for the game against the Chicago White Sox. Sandlin's recurring arm issues have led to concerns about his availability for an extended period, but he has been effective whenever on the mound. The Blue Jays continue to manage their bullpen depth amid these injuries as they compete this season.
