NEW YORK -- The Toronto Blue Jays placed left-handed reliever Brett Cecil on the 15-day disabled list Thursday with a strained left groin and recalled right-hander Steve Delabar from Triple-A Buffalo. Delabar, just sent down Tuesday, and Cecil were both All-Stars last season. In other news, infielder Brett Lawrie was out of the lineup against the New York Yankees after getting hit on the back of his left hand by a pitch Wednesday night. X-rays were negative but manager John Gibbons said Lawries hand was swollen and he couldnt grip a bat. "He needs a day," Gibbons said. Juan Francisco played third base, with Steve Tolleson at second. Lawrie, hitting .237 with 11 homers and 37 RBIs, has been starting in both spots this season. Designated hitter Adam Lind remained out with a bruised right foot. Gibbons hopes Lawrie and Lind will be available this weekend in Cincinnati. Cecil left Fridays game in Baltimore with groin tightness and rested for a few days before returning to the mound Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium. He got two outs but walked in a run and gave up a bases-loaded triple to Brian McCann. Gibbons said Cecils groin didnt feel great during his outing. The reliever is 0-3 with a 3.76 ERA and three saves in 32 appearances. In addition, the Blue Jays announced that minor league lefty Ricky Romero had season-ending surgery on his left knee to clean out quadriceps tendon inflammation. The operation was performed Tuesday by Dr. Neal Attrache in Los Angeles, and Romero is expected to need about six months to recover. Drafted sixth overall in 2005, the 29-year-old Romero was a major league All-Star three years ago, when he went 15-11 with a 2.92 ERA for the Blue Jays. But he has struggled since then and spent this season at Triple-A, going 0-3 with a 5.50 ERA in nine starts.

Future Hall of Famer Ricky Ray is in his prime and back for a third season in double blue. The 34-year old was magnificent in 2013, throwing for just under 2,900 yards despite missing eight games, tossing an impressive 21 touchdowns against just two interceptions, completing 66 per cent of his passes in the process.It appears the return of the World Cup of Hockey may be delayed by one year. Sources tell TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun the international tournament will likely return in September 2016 rather than 2015. "We see international competition on the horizon; its really just a question of what the format will be," said NHL commissioner Gary Bettman during the 2014 Olympics in Sochi. "The World Cup is a piece of an international presence that we want to have,"& added NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly.dddddddddddd. The tournament will likely be a one-city event as opposed to having the games spread over multiple venues like the past. Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment has made it clear they would like to host the event. If two cities are required, Montreal is a possibility as co-host. The NHL and NHLPA have yet to decide on participation at the 2018 Olympic Games in Pyeongchang, South Korea. ' ' '
