Blue Jays Place Marco Estrada On 10-Day DL

By Jeff Todd | July 13, 2018 at 2:51pm CDT

The Blue Jays announced today that righty Marco Estrada has been placed on the 10-day disabled list. He’ll be replaced on the active roster by outfielder Dwight Smith Jr.

Estrada is dealing with a glute strain that drove him from his most recent outing, on July 3rd. The club had held off on a DL placement, but has now made the move. Estrada’s placement is backdated as far as permissible, to July 10th, and the impact of the absence will be limited owing to the All-Star break.

There’s no real indication at this point that Estrada will be out for a lengthy stretch. But the news could impact his potential trade candidacy. If Estrada is able to return after the minimum required absence, though, it’s still possible he could make two or even three starts before the trade deadline.

Of course, as trade candidates go, the veteran righty likely isn’t a top priority for contenders. He’s carrying only a 4.72 ERA on the year, though as we recently examined, there are some reasons to believe that there will be some interest. Of course, his $13MM salary also makes him an obvious candidate to be dealt in the month of August, as he’d almost certainly clear waivers.

    I actually strained my left glute trying to bench press a little more than I could handle yesterday. Did not realize how much a person’s core was involved in benching until that happened…

    There it is!!!

    I hope he heals in time to have a start or two and bails out the Jays for signing him and then not trading him when he was healthy and performing.

    Broken record time: Atkins or Shapiro or both must be replaced. At the MLB level they have done a [very] few good things but made far too many mistakes all the while telling the fans they are trying to be competative. Enough is enough. Time to change the Jays leadership team. With the leadership strategy in place of draft and development and [mostly] sign or trade fringe for fringe MLB level players, it is going to be years and years before they have a championship calibre club.

    As I die hard Jays fan, watching this is painful. Predicting it two years ago makes it even more painful. It only took Dombroski a year to get competative at the MLB level. It took Cashman 2 years.

    Shapiro and Atkins have had their 2 years already and the team is still at least 3 years away. Venting over, #Scoutseyes.

      Can you explain the relevance as to what Dombrowski and Cashman did and what they are doing? What were the state if all the teams

    Every situation is different. You can’t just go by Dombrowski and Cashman to compare what Shipiro/Atkins have done. They’ve had to rebuild the farm and has done a great job so far. Some teams, it takes more than just two years to rebuild! And how often does a President of Baseball Operations only get two years to rebuild or get fired?!?!

    You as a “scout” should know this.
