Sprained finger lands Jays 3B Chapman on IL
Written by I Dig SportsTORONTO -- Third baseman Matt Chapman was put on the 10-day injured list Monday by the Toronto Blue Jays because of a sprained right middle finger.
Chapman left in the sixth inning of Sunday's 10-7 loss to Cleveland. The former All-Star and three-time Gold Glove winner missed three games this month because of the injury.
Chapman jammed his finger returning a dumbbell to its rack in Toronto's weight room.
Toronto recalled infielder Ernie Clement from Triple-A Buffalo ahead of Monday's game against Washington.
Chapman is batting .248 with 15 home runs and 50 RBI in 125 games. He's in the second season of a $25 million, two-year -contract and is eligible for free agency after the World Series.
Chapman was traded to Toronto in March 2022 following five seasons with Oakland.
