Donaldson is expected to miss 2 to 4 weeks due to his latest calf issue, Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

From the onset, it seemed inevitable that the third baseman would need more time to recover than just a short 10-day DL stint, but Rosenthal's report is the first such news that verifies an elongated timetable. Look for the current platoon situation between Darwin Barney and Chris Coghlan to continue in Donaldson's absence.

Donaldson (calf) was placed on the 10-day disabled list Friday, Mike Wilner of the Blue Jays Radio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Donaldson will get the chance to fully rest his ailing calf for at least the next ten days. Chris Coghlan was called up to the big leagues to take his roster spot, but look for Darwin Barney to pick up extra playing time at the hot corner.

Donaldson (calf) likely will be placed on the 10-day disabled list with a calf injury Friday, Jon Paul Morosi of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Morosi said more information will be coming throughout the day, but this obviously would be a huge blow to Donaldson's fantasy owners and the Blue Jays. The stud third baseman has had a few starts and stops with this injury since spring training, but Toronto finally has decided to give him some rest. Expect Darwin Barney to get most of the hot corner work in his place, though Ryan Goins may chime in, as well. AL-only fantasy players are the target audience for these utility players.

Donaldson (leg) re-injured his right calf during Thursday's game against the Orioles and will be evaluated Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Donaldson felt a twinge of pain during his sixth-inning double Thursday, which forced him to exit the game. His re-injury certainly isn't good news considering the team had attempted to limit stress on Donaldson's calf by just using him as a designated hitter as of late. The Blue Jays have yet to offer an official diagnosis or timetable for his return, though more information will come Friday.

Donaldson (leg) exited Thursday's game against the Orioles after running out an RBI double in the sixth inning, Sportsnet's Shi Davidi reports.

EDGE Analysis

This is concerning news for Donaldson as he had been serving as the Blue Jays' designated hitter of late to limit additional stress on his ailing calf. Donaldson appeared to be fine running down the first base line in his first at-bat, but he clearly felt a twinge on his sixth-inning double. Jarrod Saltalamacchia will take over as the Blue Jays' DH for the rest of Thursday's game and more information on Donaldson's status figures to be made available later Thursday.

Donaldson said he "felt good" on the bases in his return to the lineup Wednesday, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

The stud third baseman took a break Tuesday after tweaking his calf on Sunday and served as designated hitter Wednesday. Toronto was rightfully trying to nip any aggravation of his spring issue in the bud, and it seems to have paid off. Watch how Donaldson performs when he returns to playing the field, but he looks to be OK.

Donaldson (calf) is hitting third as the designated hitter Wednesday against the Brewers, Sportsnet's Mike Wilner reports.

EDGE Analysis

He did not start Tuesday, but was used off the bench. The Blue Jays will opt to DH him for at least Wednesday's game in order to ease him back from the calf injury. Darwin Barney gets the start at the hot corner in his place, while Kendrys Morales stays in the lineup at first base.

Donaldson's current right calf issue is not the same ailment that he dealt with in spring training, Gregor Chisholm of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

"This is a completely different spot on my calf," Donaldson said. It's tough to say if this is good or bad news. On one hand, it's nice to know that Donaldson's preseason injury is not necessarily lingering. On the flip side, it's not pleasing to think that the third baseman has a new problem on his hands. Furthermore, whether the two calf injuries could be related somehow is unclear. Either way, nothing should make owners feel comfortable outside of seeing Donaldson on the field for an extended stretch of games. His status for Wednesday evening's matchup has yet to be determined.

Donaldson is still experiencing lingering calf soreness, Mike Wilner of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Manager John Gibbons is entertaining the idea of using Donaldson as a pinch hitter, but is taking the necessary steps to avoid aggravating his calf ailment. There hasn't been any indication that Donaldson will require a stint on the DL, so he should still be considered day-to-day.

Donaldson (calf) is available from the bench Tuesday against the Brewers, TV broadcaster Hazel Mae reports.

EDGE Analysis

After being injured Sunday, There had been some hope that Donaldson would be able to return to the lineup for Tuesday's game, but the Blue Jays have opted to be cautious with the star third baseman. Donaldson may return to the lineup in the near future, but consider him day-to-day until then.
