Blister will cost Stroman next start

TORONTO -- The future is still unclear for Marcus Stroman, who's battling a blister on his right middle finger.

Manager John Gibbons said the 27-year-old will not make his scheduled start on Sunday, and the team will instead go with Thomas Pannone, who's made just two Major League starts this season.

Stroman lasted just 1 2/3 innings in his last outing on Monday. He surrendered four runs on six hits against the Rays before being pulled due to the blister. It was his first start since he was placed on the 10-day disabled list with a separate blister injury.
