ESPN.com - MLB - Day after meltdown, Jays' Ryan on DL

The Toronto Blue Jays placed closer B.J. Ryan on the 15-day disabled list Sunday with an elbow injury, a day after he blew his second save in his last four chances.

Toronto general manager J.P. Ricciardi told ESPN The Magazine's Buster Olney on Sunday that he doesn't necessarily believe Ryan blew out his elbow. The Blue Jays medical staff is "leaning more toward a strained tendon," Ricciardi said.

"He's just been sore for a couple of weeks. Our trainers have been watching and monitoring it. We just want to get it checked out."

The worst-case scenario, Ricciardi said, is that Ryan blew out his elbow. "And if that's the case, then we'll adjust."

Frasor takes over for Ryan. Hopefully for the Blue Jays Ryan isn't hurt too bad, as I don't know how well Frasor would do as a full-time closer.

This is AWFUL news. We just got to hope Frasor is amazing in Ryans absence and hope he is back in two weeks
Come back soon Ryan!

At least League should be back soon, right? Right? Oh.

After blowing those 2 saves which anyone with just an ounce of talent would have won...He should be sent to a "firing squad" instead of the DL List.

Well, those blown saves ... at least the second one ... came as a result of the elbow pain.
