Drew Hutchison (elbow) is on track to face live hitters in about three weeks.

Hutchison is currently making his way back from Tommy John surgery last August. While the 22-year-old right-hander is unlikely to see any game action until late in the season, he feels good about his progress. "You always want to do more but you know you have to follow the process and do what they tell you to do because that’s what’s in your best interest," said Hutchison. "I feel good, which is good, but you also realize that it’s the process and you need to follow the process." May 8 - 9:13 AM

Drew Hutchison - S - Blue Jays

Blue Jays placed RHP Drew Hutchison on the 60-day disabled list with a right elbow injury.

The move was made in order to clear room on the 40-man roster for the arrival of Todd Redmond. Hutchison will throw off a mound next Monday for the first time since Tommy John surgery. He won't be game-ready until the second half.

Drew Hutchison - S - Blue Jays

Blue Jays activated RHP Drew Hutchison from the 60-day disabled list.

Hutchison is going to be in recovery mode from Tommy John surgery for most of the 2013 season, so he will be placed back on the disabled list sometime next March.

Drew Hutchison - S - Blue Jays

Drew Hutchison (elbow) will require Tommy John surgery.

Hutchison was attempting to rehab a sprained ulnar collateral ligament, but recently suffered a setback and was sent to go see Dr. James Andrews. It's a tough break for the 21-year-old right-hander, who will now be sidelined for most of the 2013 campaign.

Drew Hutchison - S - Blue Jays

Drew Hutchison (elbow) began a throwing program Friday.

Hutichison, who is currently making his way back from sprained ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow, made 30 throws from a distance of 45 feet. He'll throw two out of every three days for now as he increases his workload. While he's moving in the right direction, the Jays aren't counting on anything from him before the end of the year.

Drew Hutchison - S - Blue Jays

Drew Hutchison (elbow) will resume throwing Friday.

Hutchison has been out for over a month with a sprained ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow. That type of injury often leads to Tommy John surgery, but the young right-hander has opted for a rehab program instead. He's doubtful to return to the Blue Jays by the end of 2012.

Drew Hutchison - S - Blue Jays

Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos said Friday that Drew Hutchison (elbow) is expected to resume throwing around July 23.

Hutchison has been sidelined for nearly a month with a sprained ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow. It will be tough to map out any sort of timetable for his return until he starts increasing his workload. He's iffy to return in 2012.

Drew Hutchison - S - Blue Jays

Blue Jays transferred RHP Drew Hutchison from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list.

The move clears a spot for Scott Richmond on the active roster. Hutchison was recently diagnosed with a sprained ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow and won't resuming throwing for 4-6 weeks.

Drew Hutchison - S - Blue Jays

Drew Hutchison (elbow) has been shut down for the next 4-6 weeks.

Hutchison was recently diagnosed with a sprained ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow, but he'll attempt to rehab the injury rather than undergo Tommy John surgery. Either way, his return to the Blue Jays isn't considered imminent.

Drew Hutchison - S - Blue Jays

Richard Griffin of the Toronto Star writes that surgery on Drew Hutchison's right elbow is a "strong possibility."

A second opinion from Dr. Timothy Kremchek has confirmed the original diagnosis of a sprained ulnar collateral ligament. The problem, though, is that the ligament could become worse during exercise and rehab, and Hutchison would wind up going under the knife months from now. "That's probably the scenarios that he's walking through, once the information is collected," Blue Jays manager John Farrell said. "To best determine what to do next. I'm not saying that's completely ruled out, but at this point he probably needs a day or two to work through on his own behalf and certainly discussing things with his family."

Drew Hutchison - S - Blue Jays

Drew Hutchison (elbow) will be shut down for two weeks before beginning his rehabilitation program.

Initial tests showed no tear to Hutchison's UCL, but he's expected to seek a second opinion for precautionary purposes next week. Hutchison won't be ready to return when first eligible and seems unlikely to return before the All-Star break.

Drew Hutchison - S - Blue Jays

Blue Jays placed RHP Drew Hutchison on the 15-day disabled list with a sprained ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow.

The severity of the injury isn't yet known, but Hutchison is likely looking at an extended absence. The Blue Jays are now without Hutchison, Kyle Drabek, and Brandon Morrow in their starting rotation. Robert Coello has been recalled in a corresponding move.

Drew Hutchison - S - Blue Jays

Drew Hutchison will undergo tests on his right elbow Saturday.

Hutchison left Friday's start against the Phillies in the first inning due to right elbow soreness. While the severity of the injury isn't yet known, the young right-hander apparently heard a "pop" sound. It looks like the Jays will have to dig down deep for yet another replacement in their starting rotation.

SS	1	Jose Reyes D.L. Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos said it "would not surprise me" if Jose Reyes returned in late June. Reyes had the walking boot on his left foot removed Tuesday and is evidently recovering a bit ahead of schedule, as he had been expected to sit out until around the All-Star break. The shortstop is still in the early stages of his recovery, though. A lot can happen over the next six weeks. May 14

	2	Rajai Davis D.L. Rajai Davis (oblique) has been sent to Florida to start his rehab. Davis hasn't played since May 10 due to a strained oblique. Blue Jays manager John Gibbons doesn't expect it to be a long-term injury, so it's possible he could return later this month. May 17

	2	Josh Johnson D.L. Josh Johnson (triceps) will begin a rehab assignment Monday with High-A Dunedin. Johnson has been on the DL since April 29, but he hasn't had any issues during his throwing program. He'll likely need 2-3 games before he's cleared to rejoin the Blue Jays' rotation. Johnson is on track for a return in the early part of June. May 18
	3	Brandon Morrow
	4	Mark Buehrle
	5	J.A. Happ D.L. J.A. Happ (head, knee) is expected to be sidelined 4-6 weeks. Happ will avoid throwing for a week before beginning to toss on flat ground. The Blue Jays are optimistic that the left-hander will be sidelined closer to four weeks. All things considered, that's about as good as Happ and the club could have hoped for. May 9
	6	Dustin McGowan D.L. Dustin McGowan (shoulder) will continue his minor league rehab assignment with Triple-A Buffalo. McGowan allowed one hit and one walk over two scoreless innings with High-A Dunedin and notched four strikeouts. The Blue Jays can't count on him given his lengthy injury history, but he could be an option to join the bullpen later this month if all goes well. May 17
	7	Drew Hutchison D.L. Drew Hutchison (elbow) is on track to face live hitters in about three weeks. Hutchison is currently making his way back from Tommy John surgery last August. While the 22-year-old right-hander is unlikely to see any game action until late in the season, he feels good about his progress. "You always want to do more but you know you have to follow the process and do what they tell you to do because that’s what’s in your best interest," said Hutchison. "I feel good, which is good, but you also realize that it’s the process and you need to follow the process." May 8
	8	Kyle Drabek D.L. Kyle Drabek (elbow) expects to throw live batting practice in the next week or two. Drabek threw a bullpen session Monday in extended spring training. He's coming back from the second Tommy John surgery of his career, so the Blue Jays figure to take things slow, but he could be looking at a return around midseason if all goes well. May 8
	9	Chad Jenkins
Relief Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
R	1	Casey Janssen
	2	Sergio Santos D.L. Sergio Santos will have surgery to remove bone chips and spurs from his right elbow. Santos had been nearing a minor league rehab assignment, but the discomfort in his elbow has suddenly returned. The surgery isn't expected to end his season, but it's unlikely he'll make it back until the second half. May 14

	11	Luis Perez D.L. Luis Perez (elbow) is expected to appear in an extended spring training game later this week. Perez has been throwing bullpen sessions, but this will be his first appearance in a game. He's expected to return from Tommy John surgery around midseason. May 6
