The Blue Jays have two other starting pitchers on the disabled list -- Aaron Sanchez (split finger nail) and J.A. Happ (elbow).

Liriano allowed a season-worst seven runs in two-plus innings in his start Wednesday night against the Cleveland Indians, a game the Blue Jays won 8-7.

Liriano is 2-2 with a 6.35 ERA in seven starts this season.

The Blue Jays recalled right-hander Leonel Campos from Triple-A Buffalo for Thursday's opening game of the four-game series against the Seattle Mariners.

Campos is 1-0 with two saves and a 2.31 ERA in nine games with Buffalo.
