Blue Jays' Adam Macko: Shelved with forearm injury
Double-A New Hampshire placed Adam Macko on its 7-day injured list Saturday with left forearm soreness, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.The injury cropped up during Macko's most recent start July 2 before New Hampshire opted to deactivate him a few days later. The 23-year-old lefty is rehabbing the injury, but if he's unable to make much progress in his recovery in the weeks to come, surgery could become a more distinct possibility.

Blue Jays' Adam Macko: Pushing for promotion
Adam Macko could get promoted to Triple-A Buffalo in the near future, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.The 23-year-old southpaw, acquired from Seattle two offseasons ago, is having a strong campaign with Double-A New Hampshire thanks to improved control. He's found another gear over the last month, posting a 2.81 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 46:7 K:BB through his last six starts and 32 innings. Macko features a mid-90s fastball and a big curveball, but it's the development of his changeup and sweeper that will determine whether he can ultimately thrive in a big-league rotation.

Blue Jays' Adam Macko: Sent to minors
The Toronto Blue Jays optioned Adam Macko to Triple-A Buffalo on March 8.Macko attended his first big-league spring training with Toronto after he was protected from the Rule 5 Draft over the winter and added to the 40-man roster, but the Blue Jays' decision to cut him early in camp suggests he was never particularly close to winning a spot on the 26-man roster. The 23-year-old lefty has yet to pitch above the High-A level and is likely at least a year away from making his MLB debut.
