Michael Saunders has suffered a torn left meniscus. He is likely out until the All-Star break.
The life of a Jays fan.
Awesome.

The Toronto Blue Jays have lost Michael Saunders, their new left-fielder, until sometime close to the all-star break after he stepped on a sprinkler head and tore the meniscus in his left knee while shagging flies during batting practice Wednesday.

They're saying he's going to start baseball activities in 7-10 days and hopes to join the Major League camp later in the spring.

Good to hear. The last I read was that he had a setback and wasn't going to be ready for camp until the Minors break camp. Hopefully he can work his way back into game shape but I still wouldn't bank on him being ready for the start of the season. At least ready to provide meaningful contribution.

Quite clearly he's got one of those knees that's uniquely vulnerable to sprinklers.
