Springer (concussion) is slated to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Buffalo on Wednesday, Hazel Mae of Sportsnet reports.

Springer was hit in the head with a pitch July 28 and was placed on the 7-day Friday after he was diagnosed with concussion symptoms. He's made enough progress in his recovery to begin a rehab assignment, and barring any setbacks, he could rejoin the Blue Jays for their three-game weekend road series against the Dodgers. Springer was hot at the plate in the 11 games following the All-Star break, going 19-for-44 (.432) with two home runs, one steal, four RBI and 13 runs.
