ST. Cheap Jerseys . PETERSBURG, Fla. -- The Toronto Blue Jays have placed shortstop Jose Reyes on the 15-day disabled list with hamstring tightness suffered in his first at-bat of the season. Reyes exited Mondays season opener against the Tampa Bay Rays in the first inning and did not return. Toronto went on to lose 9-2. The 30-year-old led off the game and was robbed of a hit on a diving catch by Rays centre-fielder Desmond Jennings, but was replaced in the field by Ryan Goins in the bottom of the first. Reyes sat out several games during the final week of spring training with tightness in the same hamstring and missed 66 games last season because of an injured left ankle. The Jays called up infielder Jonathan Diaz from triple-A Buffalo to replace Reyes. Diaz, 28, appeared in five games for Boston last season, making his major-league debut on June 29 against Toronto. The five-foot-nine, 155-pound right-handed hitter was drafted by the Blue Jays in the 12th round of the 2006 draft and has spent all but last season in the Toronto organization. Cheap Jerseys Free shipping . - Nevada regulators are considering sanctions against an Ultimate Fighting Championship star accused of avoiding an official who showed up unannounced at his gym to collect a sample to test for banned substances. Wholesale Jerseys.com) - Quinn Cook scored 24 points to power 10th- ranked Duke to a 79-69 win over No.DAVIE, Fla. - Dion Jordan might have found a spot at linebacker for the Miami Dolphins.Drafted as a defensive end, Jordan showed a knack for the linebacker position last week in Miamis 37-35 victory over the Minnesota VikingsJordans versatility and unique athletic skills made him attractive enough to Miami in 2013 to trade up to the third overall pick. But a lingering shoulder injury limited his snaps as a rookie and he was suspended for the first six games of this season for use of banned substances.With four-time Pro Bowl player Cam Wake and Olivier Vernon ahead of him at defensive end, Jordan has been used in specially designed speed rush packages and to cover the bigger tight ends in the division like New Englands Rob Gronkowski.The nice thing about him is we can put him at a linebacker and he can drop in coverage, or we can put him at linebacker and he can rush, coach Joe Philbin said. They (the opponents) have to figure out how they can count him, so to speak, in terms of their offensive identification system.I think thats one advantage of having him out there is it creates a little bit of indecision and sometimes he can play man-to-man, he can play zone, he can rush the quarterback. I think his versatility and flexibility is a big advantage for us defensively.Prior to the Minnesota gamee, Jordan had made the most impact on special teams covering kickoffs and being an intimidating force on opposing punters with his length and quickness.Wholesale Jerseys Cheap. The 6-foot-6, 275-pounder has come close to blocking a few punts and he had the Vikings long snapper worried enough to force an errant snap that led to Terence Fedes blocked punt for a safety that won the game.Jordan also had his first sack of the season, dropping Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater in the third quarter on a drive that ended in an interception. The Dolphins scored the go-ahead touchdown after that turnover and Jordan saw his most extensive time at outside linebacker the rest of the way.We ran a lot of the same plays that we ran while at defensive end, so I understood the calls, said Jordan, who had two solo tackles and three special teams tackles to go along with the sack. I just had to execute what they asked me to do and make the plays when they came.I did a lot of these things in college (at Oregon) and Im not that far removed. I still understand. All I have to do is make sure I was where Im designed to be in the defence, and whenever the play is there just make the play.The linebacker experiment will continue for Jordan on Sunday against the New York Jets in the season finale for both teams. Cheap Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys China Wholesale Jerseys ' ' '
