Another sim game on tap Borucki (hamstring) is scheduled to throw a one-inning simulated game Friday, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
Impact Borucki threw 30 pitches in a simulated game Tuesday, but he'll be limited to just one inning during Friday's throwing session. If he checks out fine after the sim game, the southpaw will be in the mix begin a rehab assignment afterward, or he could directly join the Blue Jays' bullpen if the team needs additional relievers.

Plays light catch Borucki (hamstring) played light catch Wednesday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Impact Borucki threw 30 pitches in a simulated game Tuesday, and he was able to throw once again a day later. The Blue Jays haven't yet determined the southpaw's next step in his recovery. If Borucki feels good following Wednesday's throwing session, he'll have a chance to join the major-league bullpen if the team needs relief help.

Completes sim game Blue Jays manager Charlie Montoyo said Borucki (hamstring) completed a 30-pitch simulated game Tuesday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Impact Borucki checked out fine after facing hitters, but the Blue Jays may want him to throw one more bullpen session before either sending him out on a brief minor-league rehab assignment or reinstating him from the 10-day injured list. The southpaw reliever wasn't able to make the Blue Jays' Opening Day roster after strained his right hamstring in his final Grapefruit League appearance April 1.

Already throwing off mound Borucki (hamstring) is throwing off a mound and should be ready to join the Blue Jays' bullpen soon, Kaitlyn McGrath of The Athletic reports.
Impact April 14 is the earliest date Borucki can be activated from the IL, but it looks like he's on track to meet that timeline. The southpaw struggled through an injury-plagued 2021, posting a 4.94 ERA and 21:11 K:BB over 23.2 innings, and he figures to work in middle relief once he's healthy.
APRIL 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Placed on injured list Borucki (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday, Mike Wilner of the Toronto Star reports.
Impact The move can be backdated by three days, leaving Borucki eligible to return April 14. Given that he was thought to be in contention for an Opening Day roster spot as recently as Sunday, it seems as though a minimum-length stay is in play.
APRIL 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Cleared for sim game Borucki (hamstring) is slated to pitch in a simulated game Tuesday, Laura Armstrong of the Toronto Star reports.
Impact The Blue Jays will wait and see how Borucki's sore right hamstring responds to the sim game before determining whether he'll be part of the Opening Day bullpen. Even if Borucki is forced to begin the season on the 10-day injured list, he'll likely be in store for a minimum stint, given that he's already been cleared to face hitters.

Could be ready for Opening Day Blue Jays manager Charlie Montoyo said Sunday that Borucki (hamstring) continues to work out and throw and could be cleared for Opening Day, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca rep...
Impact On Saturday, Borucki was sent in for an MRI, which confirmed that he was dealing with right hamstring tightness but no other damage. Since Borucki hasn't been shut down from throwing, he'll have a shot at being ready for the team's April 8 season opener versus the Rangers, though the lefty would likely need to make an appearance at some point over the Blue Jays' remaining three exhibition games to avoid the injured list.
APRIL 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Slated for MRI Borucki (hamstring) will undergo an MRI, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Impact Borucki left Friday's Grapefruit League appearance against the Pirates due to right hamstring discomfort, and his MRI should help provide clarity on the extent of the injury. He's made four appearances this spring and has allowed two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out two in 3.1 innings.

Exits with hamstring discomfort Borucki's exit Friday against the Pirates was due to right hamstring discomfort, Kaitlyn McGrath of The Athletic reports.
Impact Borucki felt an issue after slipping on the mound. Whether or not he's dealing with a long-term issue should become clear following further tests.
APRIL 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Leaves Friday's game Borucki exited Friday's Grapefruit League game with an apparent injury, Kaitlyn McGrath of The Athletic reports.
Impact Borucki was visited by the athletic trainer twice and left the field following the second visit. The specifics of the issue remain unclear, though the 28-year-old did appear to stumble on the mound.

Optioned to Buffalo Borucki was optioned to Triple-A Buffalo on Tuesday.
Impact Borucki made four appearances after rejoining the Toronto bullpen Sept. 13, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks across 4.1 innings. The southpaw has not pitched since serving a two-game suspension last Friday and Saturday for intentionally hitting Tampa Bay's Kevin Kiermaier. He'll return to Buffalo for the time being but figures to be a top candidate for another call-up should Toronto become in need of another relief arm. Cavan Biggio (neck/back/elbow) was activated from the injured list to take Borucki's spot on the 28-man roster.
