Dustin McGowan has been shut down for two weeks after experiencing soreness in his right shoulder. McGowan was diagnosed with inflammation after visiting Dr. James Andrews on Wednesday. The good news is that structural damage was ruled out, but it's yet another setback for the injury-prone right-hander, who was signed to a questionable two-year, $3 million contract in March.

Though the Blue Jays haven't set a firm timetable, Mike Rutsey of the Toronto Sun says a "best-case scenario" would have Dustin McGowan (foot) returning some time in June. "There's no time frame or time table on Dustin per se but we don't want that fifth spot to be a revolving door if we can avoid it," manager John Farrell said. McGowan resumed his throwing program Monday, but clearly he's not close to rejoining the rotation. Drew Hutchison is expected to be promoted to fill in for now.

McGowan was in the mix for Toronto's fifth starter job prior to being placed on the disabled list.

The oft-injured right-hander is unlikely to come off the DL until late-April or early-May.

Dustin McGowan (foot) remains without a timetable to return. "The foot continues to feel better but we're going to make sure that every symptom is out of there because he admits he started to alter his arm slot when the foot issue started to emerge," said Blue Jays manager John Farrell. "That begins to get into a dangerous area, and we're not going to risk anything along those lines." It's not surprising that the Jays will proceed with extra caution given McGowan's injury history. Kyle Drabek and Aaron Laffey are competing to hold down a rotation spot until the plantar fasciitis in McGowan's right foot heals.
