Franklin Morales has been the forgotten arm in the Blue Jays major league bullpen picture. After recording just two outs in early April, the veteran left-hander was placed on the disabled list with fatigue in his throwing shoulder.
Wednesday marks day number 30 of his minor league rehab assignment, the maximum allowed for pitchers.
After two quick outings with the Dunedin Blue Jays where Morales struck out three in two innings, he moved up to the triple-A Buffalo Bisons where he has pitched since. He holds an ERA of 1.12 over eight appearances (8.0 IP), striking out five and walking four.
