Ernie Clement

TOR Shortstop #28

Ernie Clement went 3-for-5 with an RBI and two stolen bases on Sunday against the Yankees.

Clement got a shot to lead-off with George Springer getting a day off and did great in that spot. He started the game off with a single and then knocked in a run next time around. His time atop the lineup will likely be short-lived, but Clement plays nearly every day and is a good source of batting average. The two steals don’t hurt either.
Yariel Rodriguez

TOR Starting Pitcher #29

Yariel Rodríguez shut the Yankees out over 4 2/3 innings on Sunday. He scattered four hits, walked one batter, and struck out four in a no-decision.

Rodríguez did well to put Monday’s disaster against the Orioles behind him to turn in a good start. His slider and curveball were each almost two ticks harder on average and they combined to force seven swings-and-misses. Those breakers are excellent, but Rodríguez has not thrown more than 83 pitches in any outing all year, so wins and innings will be harder to come by.
George Springer

TOR Right Fielder #4

George Springer is not in the lineup for Sunday’s game against the Yankees.

Springer returned from a shin injury for Saturday’s game against New York, but the 34-year-old will get a day of maintenance against the Yankees for the finale. Addison Barger is starting in right field and hitting seventh in Springer’s absence.
Vladimir Guerrero Jr.

TOR First Baseman #27

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. went 3-for-4 with a solo homer on Saturday in the Blue Jays’ loss to the Yankees.

Guerrero extended his ongoing hitting streak to 16 consecutive games with a sizzling 104.7 mph laser to straightaway center field off Yankees starter Carlos Rodón in the opening frame. It was his 22nd round-tripper of the season. He’s up to 17 extra-base knocks during his blistering-hot streak, which also includes nine big flies. That’ll do.
Jose Berrios

TOR Starting Pitcher #17

José Berríos was charged with six runs (five earned) over five innings on Saturday in a loss to the Yankees.

Berríos’s ongoing struggles continued on Saturday afternoon at Yankee Stadium as he served up a trio of two-run homers to Aaron Judge, Trent Grisham and Anthony Volpe, respectively, which accounted for all of the damage against him. The 30-year-old righty got off to a great start earlier this year, but the underlying advanced metrics hinted at some looming regression. We didn’t think it would be this dramatic as he’s allowed four earned runs or more in six of his last nine outings dating back to June 16. He’ll attempt to turn things around on Friday in a favorable matchup against the rebuilding Athletics.
George Springer

TOR Right Fielder #4

George Springer (shin) is in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Yankees.

Springer is back leading off on Saturday afternoon following an early exit from Friday’s contest due to a left shin contusion. X-rays came back negative and it’s a positive sign that he’s feeling well enough to get back in the lineup so quickly.
Alejandro Kirk

TOR Catcher #30

Alejandro Kirk (elbow) is back in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Yankees.

Kirk is back handling the catching duties after sitting out a pair of contests earlier this week due to a left elbow contusion.
Ricky Tiedemann

TOR Starting Pitcher #70

Blue Jays LHP prospect Ricky Tiedemann underwent Tommy John surgery earlier this week.

Blue Jays manager John Schneider confirmed Friday that Tiedeman underwent a traditional Tommy John ligament replacement procedure, not a hybrid UCL repair with an internal brace, which would’ve carried a shorter recovery timetable. The 21-year-old top pitching prospect is likely to miss the entire 2025 season.
George Springer

TOR Right Fielder #4

X-rays came back negative on George Springer’s left shin.

Blue Jays manager John Schneider told reporters late Friday that Springer is day-to-day and should be OK moving forward after fouling a ball off his left shin during the late stages of Friday’s series opener against the Yankees. The -year-old veteran outfielder figures to be ready to return at some point this weekend.
Mike Mayers

FA Relief Pitcher #21

Blue Jays released RHP Mike Mayers.

Mayers inked a minor league pact with Toronto back in mid-March and never wound up making it back to the big leagues. The 32-year-old journeyman righty made six appearances (two starts) last year for the Royals and has racked up 204 appearances (eight starts) in the majors dating back to 2016.
