Ryan Borucki is coming off his best outing yet, and he gets to face the Red Sox for a second time in his young career. How did he get so lucky? At least the run support curse is broken, so the team will score lots of runs for him.
Thomas Pannone has been called up in place of Mike Hauschild who was optioned down to Buffalo. Pannone is set to provide long relief if needed.
On a possible call up for Sean Reid-Foley, John Gibbons had this to say:
Gibbons says #BlueJays have discussed Sean Reid-Foley as a rotation option, but nobody is "a definite". He's impressed with what Reid-Foley's done in AAA. #BlueJays
