Blue Jays pitching prospect Ricky Tiedemann out with nerve inflammation in elbow

TORONTO — Blue Jays pitching prospect Ricky Tiedemann will miss about seven to 10 more days with a sore elbow.

Toronto manager John Schneider says that the 21-year-old left-hander has ulnar nerve inflammation.

The diagnosis comes after Tiedemann met with team doctors earlier this week.

It’s the best possible outcome after the triple-A Buffalo Bisons put him on the seven-day injured list on April 19.
