Jays' Bichette heads to IL as calf injury returns

The Toronto Blue Jays placed shortstop Bo Bichette on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a right calf strain.

Bichette, a two-time All-Star, was injured in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Detroit Tigers while running to first base as he lined out to right field to end the sixth inning. He was 1-for-3 before exiting.

This is the third time Bichette has injured the right calf this season. Friday's game marked his return from a four-game absence due to calf soreness.

Bichette, 26, spent time on the 10-day injured list in June because of his first calf injury. He missed nine games on that occasion.

"I just feel bad for him. It sucks for him and for us," Blue Jays manager John Schneider said after Friday's game.

Leo Jimenez replaced Bichette at shortstop Friday and in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Tigers.

Bichette is batting a career-worst .223 this season. He has four homers and 30 RBIs in 79 games.

In a corresponding move, the Blue Jays recalled outfielder/third baseman Addison Barger from Triple-A Buffalo. Barger, 24, went 9-for-60 (.150) with four RBIs and 18 strikeouts in 20 games this season with the Blue Jays.
