Jordan Romano, the closer for the Toronto Blue Jays, has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to right elbow inflammation. An MRI conducted revealed no structural damage, but Romano will refrain from throwing for a few days, with no injections planned. The Blue Jays have recalled left-handed pitcher Brendon Little from Triple-A Buffalo to fill Romano's roster spot. In the interim, Yimi Garcia will take over as the team's closer, according to manager John Schneider.
