Josh Donaldson is getting close to going out on a rehab assignment for the Toronto Blue Jays.
Jays manager John Gibbons said Tuesday that Donaldson is making progress and could see some action in rehab games this week.

Donaldson has been out with a shoulder injury since April 11. He was dealing with a dead arm and having trouble making his throws. Although he was batting just .239 in 12 games, he had three homers and a double, so his power is definitely missed in the Blue Jays’ lineup.
The Jays entered play on Tuesday 13-8 and fourth in MLB in runs scored.
