Looks like Travis is set to return as well. He was really struggling in Buffalo during his rehab assignment, so I don't really expect him to do much in this series.

he went 3-4 with a double today if that means anything. certainly can't expect him to hit like the greatest hitter who ever lived as he did in april, but all that really matters is that he produces more than goins in the 9th hole, which isn't a huge ask by any stretch of the imagination.

It's felt like an eternity since he went on the DL that I almost forgot he existed. That 9-hole is going to look so much better day-to-day.

17 consecutive games until the all star break. Will need to rest players with that DH spot like we have, the most difficult starters we could face are Price and Sale, at least they are both lefties.

Going to the game Saturday for my bachelor party. Sucks we don't know who is pitching.

TBA probably has the most starts on the Jays since 2012, he's a dear old friend.

Indeed, right up there with the appearances made by another staple of the organization - DFA.

Our ace goes tonight. I still can't believe I feel most comfortable with Mark Buerhle taking the mound.

Looks more and more like Matt Boyd will be called up for tomorrow's game. Blair says he's not with Buffalo in Scranton, but Felix Doubront is. (Norris pitched two days ago).

What can we expect from Boyd repertoire-wise?

Factor in a guy like Justin Smoak off the bench and that is a pretty scary proposition for opposing pitchers.

Hutchison is Sunday's starter. Hopefully it's Good Hutch
