EDGE Analysis

Pillar hit the disabled list July 15 with a collarbone issue, and he's closing in on a return to the starting nine.

Pillar (collarbone) started a hitting progression Friday, Mike Wilner of BlueJaysTalk reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pillar had already begun throwing and running earlier this week, so now he's back to participating in all baseball activities after being put on the DL in mid-July. In his place, Randal Grichuk has been receiving a majority of the starts in center field, and will likely continue to do so until Pillar is back in action.

The Blue Jays announced Monday that Pillar (collarbone) has regained his full range of motion and is out of his sling, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Prior to Toronto's game against Minnesota on Monday, Pillar was able to run around the outfield and threw for the first time since suffering this injury July 14. Since the timetable for his recovery was set at 4-to-6 weeks, the center fielder still has a ways to go before returning to the fold, though this was obviously a step in the right direction.

Pillar, who was placed on the 10-day disabled list Sunday, was spotted walking around in the clubhouse with a sling, which he'll require for the next week to stabilize the collarbone. According to Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca, the Blue Jays plan to re-evaluate Pillar at the three-week mark of his recovery, at which point he could be cleared to resume baseball activities. Pillar's absence will likely result in increased action in center field for the likes of Randal Grichuk and Dwight Smith, who was recalled from Triple-A Buffalo on Friday.
