Springer's Injury: Jays' DH Dilemma

0:00On April 15th, Toronto Blue Jays Outfielder George Springer landed on the 10-day injured list with a fractured big left toe. He got hurt during that bad in the third inning of their 7-4 loss to the Minnesota twins on April 11th. Springer finished that play to parents before they pulled him and subbed in Miles Straw. Manager John Schneider dropped an update on Tuesday, saying Springer is moving around better now than he was on Sunday. According to reports, the 36-year-old slugger is improving day-by-day, which is a good sign after sitting out the last two games. Springer usually plays designated hitter these days, so the Jays dodge any big defensive blow. Fans and the team are hoping this four-time all-star and 13-year veteran gets back quick, but it'll hinge on his progress. For now, Toronto plans to rotate guys like Eloy Jimenez, Miles Straw, or even Vladimir Guerrero Jr. at DH to cover the gap. Keep an eye on Springer's recovery. Could be the spark the Jays need to heat up their seasons.
