GameThread Game #79: Blue Jays at Astros

Baseball is fun again!

The Jays are going for the series win and Ryan Borucki is making his major league start. Life is good.

Gio Urshela has been DFA'd to make room for Borucki on the 25 man (and eventually Pannone on the 40 man). I presume Russell Martin is now the backup infielder again.

Here are the lineups for today. Granderson leads off as the DH, Martin with his veteran presence will catch for Borucki, and Pillar for some reason is still batting 5th.

We are glad you are here, and hope you feel welcome. As a reminder, we have rules. Mostly it's "don't be terrible." If a moderator asks you to stop doing something, please stop. If you want to discuss the rules, don't do it in the thread. Email Tom instead. We also have a BBB Glossary full of GameThread lingo you can find here.
