Troy Tulowitzki continues to deal with a bone spur in his right heel and won't be ready to play for the Toronto Blue Jays on Opening Day.

Tulowitzki has participated in workouts this spring, but hasn't yet run at full speed.

"I think you can write Tulo off right now," John Gibbons said. "He's not ready to play in game action. It wouldn't be fair to him, either, because he's going to need to build up and get some at-bats, really test that thing out. Make sure when he comes back, he's really ready to go. I think you can eliminate that."

The Blue Jays will open the season against the New York Yankees on March 29.
