BALTIMORE – The Blue Jays won the game, 11-3, and the series, two out of three, at Camden Yards but it came at a price. Jaron Brown Jersey . Maicer Izturis, whod begun to morph into the Blue Jays starting second baseman thanks to a hot start offensively, sprained his left knee in a freak accident in the first inning. It happened as he was descending the dugout steps to the bat rack. Izturis has been placed on the 15-day disabled list. It was a freak accident and while the early diagnosis is a sprain, when Izturis explains it, hes expecting the worst. "Its in the knee, I felt it pop twice," said Izturis. "Now I feel pain. Its sore right now and Im worried about that." Izturis, off to a .286/.324/.314 start, will have an MRI on Monday in Minneapolis. Infielder Munenori Kawasaki has been called up from Buffalo. Meanwhile, Colby Rasmus left the game after scoring a run in the sixth inning. He says he tweaked his left hamstring while making a running catch on a Nick Markakis fly ball in the fifth. Rasmus doesnt believe its serious. "Just to make sure its nothing big and weve got an off day (Monday) and we were up in the game, so I decided to come out just to make sure everythings good," said Rasmus. If Rasmus is forced to miss games, the timing isnt good. Hes heating up at the plate with home runs in back-to-back games and a three-hit, three-RBI afternoon on Sunday. Rasmus home run in the first inning on Sunday left the park, literally, landing on Eutaw Street in front of the famous warehouse building in right field. It was the 78th home run to land on Eutaw Street in the history of Oriole Park at Camden Yards, which is in its 23rd season. Encarnacion feels relief Edwin Encarnacion broke out on Sunday with a three-hit game, which included his first two RBIs of the season. Did Edwin feel any relief? "Big time," said Encarnacion. Manager John Gibbons dropped Encarnacion to the fifth spot in the order, moving Adam Lind up to clean-up. "Just timing," said Encarnacion of his early season issues. "Hitting is about timing. When you have the timing, you can hit. I feel a lot better the last couple of games so I hope I continue to do that." Through 12 games, Encarnacion had been hitting only .174/.240/.261. Hes still looking for his first home run. Happ to join Jays in Minneapolis Left-hander J.A. Happ, who started the season on the disabled list with inflammation in his back, will rejoin the ballclub in time for the three-game series against the Twins. To make room for Happ on the active roster, catcher Erik Kratz was optioned to Triple-A Buffalo. Reyes and Janssen go to Florida While their teammates travel to chilly Minneapolis, Jose Reyes (hamstring) and Casey Janssen (abdominal strain) are headed to Dunedin to continue their respective rehabilitations. Reyes will play in an extended spring training game on Monday, which will allow him to lead off each inning. Hell then play for Single-A Dunedin on Tuesday. Janssen is expected to make an in-game appearance no later than Tuesday. The Blue Jays hope to have Reyes back for next weekends series in Cleveland. The timetable for Janssens return is less clear at the moment. Frostee Rucker Jersey ., will experience this week.

BUFFALO, N.Y. -- The sale of the Buffalo Bills entered the next phase with prospective ownership groups, including Donald Trump, meeting with team officials to prepare formal bids. Two people familiar with the sale process confirmed to The Associated Press on Thursday that the New York real estate mogul was the first to receive a presentation. Trumps meeting was held in the Detroit-area on Wednesday. Buffalo Sabres owners Terry and Kim Pegula and a Toronto group fronted by rocker Jon Bon Jovi also have scheduled meetings. The people spoke on the condition of anonymity because the sale process is private. The Bills are on the market after Hall of Fame owner Ralph Wilson died in March. The Buffalo News first reported the development on its website. During the meetings, prospective buyers receive extensive financial and background information on the franchise. Bids are expected to be submitted within three weeks. A prospective owner is expected to be identified by the end of next month, and then presented to NFL owners for approval at league meetings in New York in early October. Bills president Russ Brandon is involved in making the presentations on behalf of Morgan Stanley, the banking firm hired by Wilsons estate to oversee the sale. Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly and his brother Dan Kelly, who runs the familys business interests, are also involved in the meetings. Though the Kellys have expressed interest in purchasing the team, its unclear if they have submitted a bid. The Pegulas and Trump are considered the front-runners. Both have the assets to complete what is expected to be a $1 billion-plus purchase, and they also have expressed a commitment to keep the Bills in western New York. Terry Pegula was last valued by Forbes to have a net worth of $3.3 billion. Thhat was before Pegula closed a $1. T. J. Logan Jersey. 75 billion deal on Tuesday to sell about 75,000 acres of drilling rights to American Energy Partners. Trump was last valued with a net worth of $3.9 billion. That does not include his holdings in numerous properties, including several high-profile golf resorts he recently purchased. The Bon Jovi-fronted group is made up of Toronto-based partners, Larry Tanenbaum, chairman of Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment, and the Rogers family, which controls Rogers Communications. However, its unclear whether Bon Jovi has the liquid assets to buy the Bills if the sale price goes above $1.2 billion. Under NFL rules, a principal owner must have enough cash and use no more than $200 million in debt-financing to hold a minimum 30 per cent ownership stake. Forbes most recently valued Bon Jovis net worth at $290 million. Bon Jovi also faces questions about his long-term intentions to keep the team in the Buffalo area, which is a prerequisite in the sale process. Last weekend, Bon Jovi had a letter published in The Buffalo News stating that his objective was "to carry on the legacy of Ralph Wilson and make the Bills successful in Buffalo." He didnt state in the seven-paragraph letter that he was committed to keeping the franchise in Buffalo. The letter was received with some skepticism in Buffalo and among Bills fans. The commitment Bon Jovi provided was working with state and local officials to identify a site for a potential new stadium. Under the current lease, reached in December 2012, the Bills would incur a $400 million penalty for broaching the prospect of moving during the 10-year agreement. There is a one-time exception that would allow the Bills to break the agreement for just under $28.4 million in 2020.
