Blue Jays' Jose Bautista: Seeing reduced swelling on toe

Blue Jays trainer George Poulis said that the swelling in Bautista's toe has mostly dissipated, but the outfielder remains confined to a walking boot, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet reports.

Analysis:

Bautista seems to be progressing as expected after landing on the DL back on June 17, but since he's yet to resume baseball activities, it looks like he could be at least a couple weeks away from returning. The Blue Jays may just end up waiting until after the All-Star break before bringing back Bautista.
