Blue Jays' Trey Yesavage lands on 15-day IL due to knee inflammation

Trey Yesavage has been placed on the 15-day injured list by the Toronto Blue Jays after experiencing left knee inflammation during a warmup before a game against the Houston Astros on Tuesday. He was removed from the game after two scoreless innings in a 7-2 loss. Yesavage initially began the season on the injured list with a right shoulder impingement. Manager John Schneider indicated that the pitcher felt a pinch in his knee, which worsened after landing awkwardly. An MRI confirmed the inflammation. In response, the Blue Jays recalled Lazaro Estrada and Chase Lee from Triple-A Buffalo while optioning Chad Dallas to the Bisons.
