Toronto pitcher Alek Manoah will get an MRI on Thursday after he left the Blue Jays' 3-1 victory over the Chicago White Sox because of right elbow discomfort.
With two out and a runner on third in the second inning, Manoah was checked on by manager John Schneider and a trainer after throwing a 91.4 mph sinker tofor a ball. The big right-hander then departed after a short discussion on the mound.
“Felt it after my start in Detroit and tried to do everything I can with the training staff through the week,” Manoah said Wednesday night. “Threw a bullpen a couple days ago, kind of felt fine. I felt like I was able to go out there and compete and give the team a chance, and just wasn't able to.
Manoah was examined by a White Sox doctor Wednesday night. He began the season on the 15-day injured list because of shoulder inflammation. Manoah was a breakout star for Toronto in 2022, going 16-7 with a 2.24 ERA in 31 starts. He made the AL All-Star team and finished third in AL Cy Young Award voting.
