Jose Reyes playing through shoulder injury

Blue Jays shortstop Jose Reyes admitted Tuesday his recent run of throwing problems has been because of a shoulder injury he's been dealing with over the last month, according to Sportsnet.ca.

Reyes has made 12 errors this season, with eight being throwing errors. His career high for throwing errors is nine, which he set in 2006.

"To be honest with you, I don’t know," Reyes said when asked what triggered the problems. "It’s been long enough. One day I feel good, the next day I feel sore, that’s the way it is. Baseball, you’re never going to be perfect, you’re always going to have some soreness in your body. You need to find a way to control that."

Reyes said the pain in his shoulder bothers him on certain swings, but it's not enough to keep him out of the lineup.

"When I catch the ball out front it bothers me a little bit, but it’s not a big deal," he said. "I feel like I’m able to play like that, to help this ball club like that. If you asked everybody here if they have some soreness in their body, everybody is going to say yes."
