The Toronto Blue Jays may just be the unluckiest team in baseball right now. In this latest setback, the Jays have lost centre-fielder, Vernon Wells for 4 to 6 weeks with a left hamstring injury. Wells injured his hamstring while stealing 3rd base in last night's 9-8 win over the Baltimore Orioles.
Wells now finds himself on the 15-day disabled list along with pitcher Dustin McGowan who suffered a torn right rotator cuff and is out for at least 4 weeks as well.
In 64 games with the Blue Jays this season, Wells batted .287 with 9 HRs and 42 RBIs and has been the top offensive contributor to a club that has been really inconsistent with batting.
Toronto is playing Baltimore tonight trying to secure the 3 game sweep. It is currently 5-2 Baltimore at the bottom of the 8th. The Jays continue their homestand tomorrow as they host a series with the New York Yankees.

this year has been great except one thing TOO MANY DAMN INJURIES lol.
Yeah it has. First Jansen, then Rolen, then Ryan for a bit, then Accardo, the Wells, then MacDonald, then Eckstein, then McGowan, then Wells again. Talk about a black cat crossing the basepaths.
man why should I be complaining about Schlling/Ortiz injuries when you guys had to deal with all of those, idk what is it with baseball players these days back then you didnt see this as much.
And what I said isn't entirely correct there are even more injuries than that lol.
