Marcum OK

They'll be shutting him down until the All Star Break probably

With Marcum sidelined, the Jays need to promote a pitcher to start against the Braves on Saturday. The top candidates to replace Marcum from Triple-A Syracuse include left-handers John Parrish and David Purcey, along with righty Kane Davis. Parrish is 10-0 with a 2.83 ERA, Purcey is 6-5 with a 2.42 ERA and Davis is 6-6 with a 3.30 ERA at Syracuse

I hope we don't rush him back too quickly in order to try and get into some sort of playoff race. It's a relief there's no TJ surgery, though; that'd be a real downer.
