TORONTO (AP) -- The Blue Jays put slugger Carlos Delgado on the 15-day disabled
list Tuesday because of a strained right rib cage, making the move retroactive
to May 30.
``We've already lost him for 10 days and if this thing pulls again we could los
e him for 30 days,'' Toronto manager Carlos Tosca said.
``It's only a precaution. Hopefully, he'll be able to swing pain free by the we
ekend,'' he said.
Delgado was second in AL MVP voting last year after hitting .302 with 42 homers
and a major league-leading 145 RBIs.
The first baseman is hitting .227 with eight home runs and 32 RBIs this season.
The Blue Jays also placed left-hander Valerio De Los Santos on the 15-day DL wi
th a sore shoulder, and activated shortstop Chris Woodward, outfielder Frank Ca
talanotto and right-hander Justin Speier from the 15-day DL.
Speier (sore shoulder) missed 25 games, Woodward (strained right hamstring) was
out for 24 games and Catalanotto (strained right groin) missed 16.
``I've never seen this many injuries on one team, but we're starting to get guy
s back,'' manager Carlos Tosca said.
Toronto also optioned outfielder Simon Pond to Triple-A Syracuse. Pond has hit
.163 in 16 games with Toronto this year.
