Marco Estrada To Miss Weekend Start; Sam Gaviglio An Option
6 years agoToronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Marco Estrada (hip, gluteus) will miss another start, this time during a series with the Boston Red Sox the weekend before the All-Star break. Estrada has been day-to-day with a mild glute strain, though he has not been placed on the disabled list as of yet. Estrada owners waiting for his return will have to seek pitching help elsewhere. That said, Blue Jays manager John Gibbons mentioned the chance of Sam Gaviglio starting in Estrada’s stead, albeit on short rest. Gaviglio got lit up by the Atlanta Braves his last time out, and won’t be a great option against the Red Sox.
