The Blue Jays got roughed up in their first diversion at Fenway Stop this season, losing 8-3 to the Boston Red Sox and Josh Donaldson to damage.
Donaldson left in the fifth inning on Monday evening — Remembrance Day south of the outskirt — with left calf snugness, in the wake of pulling up as he ran awkwardly from first to third base on a twofold by Justin Smoak. The third baseman missed almost a month and a half with a correct calf strain last season, and burned through 20 days on the incapacitated rundown this year with right shoulder irritation. He told columnists in Boston that he didn't think the damage was not kidding, however would likely take Tuesday off.
"It's a little sore right currently, still somewhat tight," Donaldson revealed to The Related Press. "We will do some treatment and stuff on it and see, only sort of improvise, perceive how it reacts."
On the off chance that he does require additional time off? Donaldson was scarcely off the field before theory was back going all out about calling up No. 1 prospect Vladimir Guerrero Jr. — now keeping an eye on third base and tearing up Twofold A pitching with the New Hampshire Fisher Felines.
Jays supervisor John Gibbons was ambiguous on the alternatives.
"We'd acquire some individual," he told Sportsnet in his post-diversion scrum. "That is the way the amusement goes. You manage it. In any case, you manage it."
Toronto is as of now missing shortstops Aledmys Diaz (lower leg) and Troy Tulowitzki (the two foot sole areas), outfielders Steve Pearce (slanted) and Randal Grichuk (knee), and beginning pitcher Marcus Stroman (bear). Diaz and Grichuk are on recovery assignments with the Fisher Felines.
That labor deficiency had an influence in Gibbons' choice to begin customary catcher Russell Martin in left field — his first diversion in the outfield since 2013 — two days after he'd made his first begin as a major association shortstop. Martin was out ahead of schedule at Fenway, endeavoring to figure out how to play bobs off the Green Creature in left.
Martin likewise has involvement with third — three begins this season — which will be a factor if Donaldson is out for any time allotment. The Red Sox were up 6-1 when Donaldson left Monday's amusement. It was tied 1-1 heading into the base of the fourth inning, with Jays starter Aaron Sanchez still on the hill, when the home group detonated for five runs topped by Andrew Benintendi's two-run homer — his first finished the Green Beast in left. The Boston left defender completed the day a twofold shy of the cycle.
It was another unpleasant excursion for Sanchez, who permitted a profession high seven earned keeps running on nine hits — including J.D. Martinez's seventeenth homer of the season, tying colleague Mookie Betts for the group captain — and lost his third straight choice. He struck out four and strolled one.
It was a messy day at the plate and on guard for the Blue Jays, including catcher Luke Maile's tossing blunder on a Jackie Bradley Jr. take in the 6th. Afterward, Bradley Jr. made a fantastic catch in focus field, on the notice track with his back to home plate, to loot Jays assigned hitter Kendrys Spirits of additional bases.
Previous Jay David Cost got the win, his fifth of the season, with five innings of two-run, four-hit ball.
The Jays have lost 11 of their last 15 amusements and still can't seem to record consecutive wins in the long stretch of May.
Marco Estrada begins for the Jays on Tuesday night against 2016 Cy Youthful Honor champ Rick Porcello.
