Toronto Blue Jays outfielder George Springer suffered a concussion and a shoulder sprain in Saturday’s Game 2 loss to the Seattle Mariners.
General manager Ross Atkins said Tuesday that Springer was “recovering well” and was expected to be cleared to travel relatively soon.
Springer was hurt when he collided with shortstop Bo Bichette as they tried to catch a blooper in shallow centre field.
