Not a huge surprise seeing how much pain he was in when it happened.

From Wikipedia[0]:

Evidence for treatments, including rest, however is poor. Recovery can take months and persist over years. It is relatively common with about 14% of athletes currently affected; however research reflects that more than half of athletes with this injury end their careers as a result.

That is a nice description but for us jays fans, no bueno...

I see DeJong playing out for 30 days at least and Bo's bat will be missed.
