On Thursday, the Toronto Blue Jays received great news with regards to star outfielder George Springer as he was finally cleared to resume baseball activities and participated in a live game with the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons that very evening. After a strong showing in his rehab game, Blue Jays manager John Schneider suggested that if all goes well, Springer could be back in action with the Blue Jays as early as Saturday, as per Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.
That is definitely great news for Toronto and their fans, but maybe not so great for the player on the roster, as that will mean a roster casualty upon Springer’s return.
