## Resource

Addison Barger’s breakout season is derailed again as the Toronto Blue Jays’ right fielder faces another setback — a stress fracture in his back that will sideline him for weeks. Already rehabbing from an elbow injury, Barger’s back pain surfaced while he tried to return to hitting form. At just 26, he’s played only nine games this season, missing time with an ankle sprain and elbow inflammation, and his stats are dismal — one hit in 22 at-bats. Last year, he was a force with 21 homers and 74 RBIs, even excelling in the playoffs. Now, with Barger out and fellow outfielder Jesus Sanchez also injured, Nathan Lukes steps in — adding to a mounting injury crisis for a Jays team already struggling below .500 and fighting to stay alive in the playoff race.
