Updating a previous item, TSN.ca reports Toronto Blue Jays RP B.J. Ryan has seen a drastic drop in velocity this spring, but bullpen coach Bruce Walton believes Ryan may be trying too hard in Spring Training and tightening up when he comes into games. "The word from my bullpen coach [Bruce Walton] is he throws harder down in the bullpen," manager Cito Gaston said. "When he comes out, he tries so hard he may be tightening up." The team continues to say that Ryan is not injured and he will not begin the season on the disabled list.
