Probably soreness in his shoulder again. Really, the odds of him ever being a serviceable major league pitcher are very low...power pitchers don't often fare well after labrum surgery.

**** your asterisk.

Yeah he's pretty much done. Too bad though, he was pitching great before the injuries.

Because it's a fairly cheap deal with little risk. If he can't pitch any more, the Jays just lose a bit of cash. If he can, they have a very talented pitcher who is still fairly young and wouldn't be making anything close to what he should be for what he can bring (at least for 2010).
