B.J. Ryan Has Tommy John Surgery

Toronto Blue Jays closer B.J. Ryan will miss the rest of the season after having Tommy John surgery on his left elbow today.

Ryan, who signed a $47 million, five-year contract before last season, should be ready to pitch again by spring training next year.

The lefty was 0-2 with three saves and a 12.46 ERA in five games this season after sustaining a low 1.37 ERA with 38 saves last year.

This is a HUGE blow to the Jays.

Yeah it is. He was pretty awesome last year, too. It sucks.

This is a HUGE blow to my fantasy team.

I thought the B.J. Ryan/Mariano Rivera combo was going to dominate.

Damn... Rivera could use some relief, huh.
