TORONTO -- The Blue Jays placed reliever Ryan Tepera on the 10-day disabled list with right elbow inflammation prior to Toronto's game against the Tigers on Saturday.
Manager John Gibbons opted for Tyler Clippard in the ninth inning of Friday's series opener instead of Tepera, and said after the game that his arm was "hanging" a bit after the Houston series. Tepera allowed a walk-off home run in his most recent appearance on June 27.

"As a bullpen guy we always experience soreness," Tepera said prior to Saturday's game.
