Blue Jays top prospect Brett Lawrie is "close" to being called up, but an unfortunate injury Tuesday may have upset the team's plans. Just hours after Toronto general manager Alex Anthopoulos suggested Lawrie was on the cusp of a Major League callup, the prospect was hit on the top of the left hand by a pitch in a Triple-A game. Lawrie left the game immediately and went to a local hospital for X-rays. He gave an update on his Twitter profile, @blawrie13, writing: "At hospital , pls be bruised .. #praying." Before the injury it appeared as though Lawrie could debut as soon as this weekend. "He's close," Anthopoulos said before Lawrie's injury. "I was hoping he was going to force our hand, and he's starting to. He's very much in the conversation right now. ... At this point, it's just a decision we need to make."
