Brandon Morrow to visit orthopedic surgeon
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com

Blue Jays rehabbing starter Brandon Morrow, who suffered a forearm setback by feeling some tenderness after throwing two innings and 35 pitches for Class A Dunedin Monday, will visit a club orthopedic surgeon for further testing, the National Post reports. 

"He had a little setback," manager John Gibbons said before Tuesday night’s game against Colorado. "The forearm’s still bothering him, so they’re backing him off that rehab. He’ll get re-examined, see where he’s at."

Don't underestimate Josh Johnson
by Scott White | Senior Fantasy Writer

Josh Johnson has good stuff. That's not even open for debate. In his last start Monday against the Rockies, the Blue Jays right-hander was right around 94 mph with his fastball. For the season, he's averaging 92.6, which would rank him among the 20 hardest-throwing starting pitchers, alongside Justin Verlander and Clayton Kershaw, if he had the innings to qualify.

And that's just pure heat. You could argue he's done even more damage with his secondary arsenal, which he uses 40 percent of the time, over the course of his career.

He's had injury problems over the years that have made him inconsistent and frustrating to own in Fantasy, but when he's right, the stuff still holds up, as he showed by striking out 10 Rockies over 7 1/3 scoreless innings in that start Monday. And judging by his comments after that start, he's feeling right again.

"Definitely the most comfortable I've been," Johnson said. "Just being able to get extension on all my pitches, not have to worry about the triceps or anything like that. It's definitely nice."

If he has another good start Sunday against the Orioles, he's back to must-start status.

J.A. Happ throws side session
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com

Blue Jays starter J.A. Happ threw his first side session Tuesday since being struck by a comebacker and suffering a knee sprain, Sportsnet.ca reports. 

Happ took another step in a positive direction. He originally suffered a nasty head injury in his last start May 7 against Tampa Bay but is having more trouble with a knee injury as a result of the subsequent fall.

Luis Perez shuts down rehab
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com

The Blue Jays shut down reliever Luis Perez from his rehab of Tommy John surgery Tuesday, MLB.com reports. 

Perez suffered a setback and halted his rehab. Manager John Gibbons called it a minor issue. Perez made one appearance for Class A Dunedin on a rehab assignment and struck out one batter over two perfect innings June 10.

Jose Reyes making progress during rehab
by Chris Cwik | CBSSports.com

Blue Jays shortstop Jose Reyes felt fine after his first rehab game, and could move up to a more challenging level soon, according to the Toronto Star.

Manager John Gibbons said Reyes would likely move up to Double-A or Triple-A by the end of the week. He's expected to play in rehab games for two weeks before he's activated. Reyes is hitting .395/.465/.526 in 38 at-bats.
