Blue Jays | Barrett placed on 15-day disabled list

Updating previous reports, Toronto Blue Jays C Michael Barrett (shoulder) has been placed on the 15-day disabled list, because of a torn muscle and possible fracture in his right shoulder, according to The Associated Press. He sustained the injury while chasing a wild pitch Friday, April 17, against the Oakland Athletics, when he fell on a weighted sleeve in the Athletics' on-deck circle. General manager J.P. Ricciardi said X-rays were unable to reveal the extent of the injury because his shoulder was too swollen.
