Blue Jays reliever Erik Swanson is dealing with median nerve entrapment in his throwing arm. He received a cortisone shot and will not throw for a few days while it takes effect. Swanson is likely to start the season on the injured list due to this setback. An MRI showed no structural damage to his elbow, indicating no long-term issues. Swanson had a strong first year with the Blue Jays but faced injuries last season. The team needs him to recover fully, as he is a key part of their bullpen.
