Blue Jays starting Catcher Danny Jansen is out for the rest of the regular season after undergoing surgery on his right middle finger.

Jansen’s availability for the Post-Season, should the Blue Jays hold onto one of the remaining Wild Card spots, is unclear at this time. Jansen suffered the injury when he was hit by a foul tip last Friday.

Jansen is the Blue Jays 10th most valuable position player with a 1.5 WAR, two spots behind the clubs other main catching option in Alejandro Kirk (1.7). Jansen, however, has been the better offensive option this season — worth more than double the amount of runs above replacement level than Kirk (19 vs. 8).
