TAMPA, Fla. -- Blue Jays starting pitcher Brandon Morrow will miss the start of the regular season because of inflammation in the flexor muscle of his right elbow.
Morrow felt discomfort in the elbow during his Sunday bullpen session. He approached Toronto's medical staff with the news and had an MRI on Monday.
The examination revealed inflammation, and though Morrow felt like he was still able to pitch, the Blue Jays decided to take a cautious approach. He will be placed on the 15-day disabled prior to Opening Day, retroactive to Tuesday, and is expected to miss just one start.
