Jameson Taillon and Spencer Arrighetti are progressing in their recoveries for the Toronto Blue Jays as of August 19. Both pitchers have been on the injured list, with Taillon out due to right forearm tendinitis and Arrighetti sidelined with right foot nerve irritation. Taillon threw from flat ground ahead of a game against the Tampa Bay Rays, while Arrighetti is also taking steps toward returning. The Blue Jays, who are half-game out of the final American League wild card spot, seek to improve their pitching depth as they continue to pursue postseason contention.
