An MRI revealed that J.P. Arencibia is dealing with right knee bursitis. Arencibia has missed the Blue Jays' last three games, but could return to the lineup Saturday. He'll avoid the disabled list for now and attempt to play through injury.

J.P. Arencibia (knee) remained out of the Blue Jays' lineup Friday. Arencibia hurt the knee while blocking a pitch during warm-ups prior to Wednesday's game. He required an MRI, and although the results haven't been revealed, it's certainly a good sign that he hasn't been placed on the DL yet.

J.P. Arencibia was hitless in three at-bats in Thursday's loss to the Angels. Arencibia has just one hit in his last seven games, dropping his batting average down to .216 for the year. Meanwhile, he has just two home runs over his last 32 games. There's little reason to keep him around in single-catcher standard mixed fantasy leagues right now.

J.P. Arencibia went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run Friday against the Orioles. The home run was his first since way back on June 18. It's difficult to use Arencibia in fantasy leagues when he isn't producing in the power department. It's the only thing he has going for him.

J.P. Arencibia went 3-for-4 with a double and a home run as the Blue Jays beat the Rockies on Tuesday. The homer was Arencibia's third in four games and his 15th on the season. His .222/.243/.461 line is indicative of Arencibia's game -- he doesn't hit for average, he doesn't walk, but when he makes contact it goes a long way.
