The Blue Jays are yet to provide an update on Tulowitzki (quad), who suffered a setback while playing in an extended spring training game last week, the Toronto Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
Had everything gone as planned, Tulowitzki would have been eligible to return to the Jays on Monday night, but the setback will keep him on the disabled list longer than anticipated. Manager John Gibbons said Sunday that he has no update on the shortstop, but news is expected sometime within the next day or two. So long as Tulowitzki remains away from the team, Darwin Barney should continue to see increased playing time in his absence.

Tulowitzki (quad) left Friday's extended spring training game early and his timeline to return is now in doubt, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tulowitzki was slated to go to Triple-A Buffalo on Saturday, but that's probably not happening for at least a couple days. A setback right before a rehab assignment is worrying enough for any player, but with the often-injured Tulowitzki, it's a major alarm bell. If he has to miss any more time, that'll be more starts for Darwin Barney, but the career .249 hitter isn't going to hit .300 forever. Check back later to see if he receives a new timeline.

Tulowitzki (quadriceps) will play in an extended spring training game Friday before starting a rehab assignment with High-A Dunedin on Saturday, Brendan Kennedy of the Toronto Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
This is a significant change from manager John Gibbons' stance Wednesday morning. Gibbons didn't expect Tulowitzki to need a rehab assignment, but he will now report to Dunedin on Saturday. He is still likely to return to the Blue Jays on Monday barring any setbacks, but is now able to get acclimated with some action before being brought back to Toronto.

Manager John Gibbons doesn't expect Tulowitzski (quadriceps) to need a rehab assignment before returning to the lineup, Gregor Chisholm of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gibbons said Tulowitzski will instead get at-bats at their minor league complex, like an extended spring training. The shortstop is expected to return to the lineup immediately when he is eligible to come off the disabled list on Monday, June 13.

Tulowitzki (quadriceps) said Sunday he's feeling "better and better each day" and could return from the DL in the minimum 15 days, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tulowitzki has been working out at the Blue Jays' spring training facility in Dunedin, Fla. since landing on the DL on May 28, and all indications are that he's progressing as expected. The Jays will likely leave it up to Tulowitzki to decide if he needs a rehab assignment or not, but the shortstop should at least test out his quad in a simulated game prior to his activation.

Tulowitzki (quadriceps) was placed on the 15-day disabled list Saturday,Toronto play-by-play announcer Mike Wilner reports.
EDGE Analysis
This is difficult news for the Blue Jays as they had just activated second baseman Devon Travis from the disabled list, which put their infield at full strength. Tulowitzki started having trouble with his quadriceps on Tuesday and sat out two games before aggravating the injury in Friday's contest. He is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Saturday, which figures to provide a clearer picture of when Tulowitzki may be able to return. Darwin Barney will take over at shortstop Saturday and he'll likely continue to do so while Tulowitzki is on the shelf.

Tulowitzki, who is not in Saturday's lineup, aggravated his quad injury during Friday night's game, Brendan Kennedy of the Toronto Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tulowitzki returned to action Friday night after missing two games, but he went 0-for-4 and tweaked the quad injury that had ailed him earlier in the week. Manager John Gibbons didn't have much to say about the matter, but he noted that Tulowitzki is set for an MRI, so more information should be available later in the day. Consider the shortstop day-to-day until further notice.

Tulowitzki is not in the lineup Saturday against the Red Sox, Brendan Kennedy of the Toronto Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tulowitzki was held out of the lineup Wednesday and Thursday with a minor quad injury, but he returned to action Friday and went 0-for-4 at the plate. The Blue Jays are yet to comment on Tulowitzki's absence from Saturday's lineup, but it's possible he's still dealing with some discomfort in the quad. Darwin Barney will get the start at shortstop, and he'll hit eighth against Boston's Rick Porcello.

Tulowitzki (quadriceps) is back in the lineup hitting fifth Friday against the Red Sox, the Toronto Star's Brendan Kennedy reports.
EDGE Analysis
This works out nicely, as his owners were likely a little worried, given Tulowitzki's injury history. He can be deployed as usual in all formats Friday against Joe Kelly in Toronto.

Tulowitzki (quadriceps) is out of Thursday's lineup against the Yankees, Sportsnet's Barry Davis reports.
EDGE Analysis
This will be the second game that he will miss with the quad issue, and Darwin Barney will get the start at shortstop. Last year he only missed two games with a quad issue, so hopefully he can return sometime this weekend.
