Blue Jays slugger Josh Donaldson goes on 10-day disabled list due to calf injury
TORONTO — The Toronto Blue Jays placed third baseman Josh Donaldson on the 10-day disabled list Friday and selected the contract of outfielder Chris Coghlan from triple-A Buffalo.
Donaldson aggravated a right calf injury in a 2-1 loss to the Baltimore Orioles on Thursday night at Rogers Centre.
“It’s very aggravating, very frustrating,” Donaldson said. “At the same time, you’ve got to try to stay as positive as possible and look to get back in the right time and make sure that everything is going to be good.”
Donaldson, the 2015 American League most valuable player, is batting .310 with two homers and four RBIs in nine games this season.
