Dustin McGowan (oblique) is a week into his DL stint and has not been cleared for a throwing program. McGowan hit the 15-day disabled list on August 1 with a strained right oblique muscle. There is no timetable for the right-hander's return to the Blue Jays' bullpen. He will likely require a minor league rehab assignment.

Dustin McGowan will be placed on the disabled list after tweaking his side during an appearance on Monday. A tough break for McGowan, as he's basically lived on the DL over the last five seasons. It's not clear at this point how long he'll be sidelined. Serio Santos will replace him on the roster.

Blue Jays activated RHP Dustin McGowan from the 60-day disabled list. McGowan has dealt with a litany of injuries over the last four seasons, and has appeared in just five games in the majors since the 2008. The 31-year-old right-hander will be used out of the bullpen in Toronto.

Dustin McGowan (shoulder) will be activated from the disabled list on Saturday. It's a nice accomplishment for the oft-injured right-hander, who has appeared in just five games in the majors since the 2008 season. He'll be used out of the bullpen in Toronto and won't hold any immediate fantasy value. Todd Redmond will be optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Dustin McGowan (shoulder) is expected to be activated from the disabled list soon. McGowan pitched in back-to-back games earlier this week at Triple-A Buffalo, which was essentially the final hurdle he needed to clear to show the Jays he was ready. He holds a 5.73 ERA over 11 rehab innings but has struck out 16 batters. McGowan's rehab window ends on June 12, so he should be activated in the next few days.

Dustin McGowan (shoulder) will continue his minor league rehab assignment with Triple-A Buffalo. McGowan allowed one hit and one walk over two scoreless innings with High-A Dunedin and notched four strikeouts. The Blue Jays can't count on him given his lengthy injury history, but he could be an option to join the bullpen later this month if all goes well.
