The Toronto Blue Jays have been unable to shake the injuries this season as Nathan Lukes is the latest outfielder to be placed on the injured list.
Blue Jays outfielder Nathan Lukes is headed to IL
The Blue Jays announced yesterday that they called up Will Robertson from Triple-A to replace Lukes who was scratched from the lineup due to a neck injury that he has been dealing with since the series against the Minnesota Twins.
Despite it originally sounding like the problems was nothing too serious, the Blue Jays have now placed Lukes on 7 day IL due to concussion symptoms which resulted in the Blue Jays selecting Will Robertson’s contract.

The Toronto Blue Jays placed outfielder Nathan Lukes on the seven-day injured list on Wednesday and selected the contract of rookie outfielder Will Robertson from Triple-A Buffalo.
Lukes’ move was retroactive to Tuesday. He apparently was hurt in the sixth inning of Sunday’s 6-3 loss to the Minnesota Twins when he collided with Blue Jays second baseman Ernie Clement.
Lukes started to feel concussion symptoms due to that collision, according to the team, which doesn’t expect him to need more than seven days to recover. #MLB
Robertson will now have a chance to prove himself at the MLB level which he has never played in before but the Blue Jays are hoping he continue to have the same success he had in Triple-A when it comes to hitting at he currently has 12 homeruns and 35 RBIs in 52 games.
