In theory, the Jays are looking for the split tonight. However, the tarp is currently residing on the field and whether they can get a game in will be iffy (please don’t let any more players get hurt. We are running very low at the moment).
The rotation for the weekend has been set (which I am sure will not be affected in the slightest as to whether the game tonight is played):
Blue Jays starters vs. the Rays this weekend:
— Arden Zwelling (@ArdenZwelling) April 21, 2021
Fri. Apr. 23 — Steven Matz
Sat. Apr. 24 — Robbie Ray
Sun. Apr. 25 — Hyun Jin Ryu
Charlie is perhaps hoping a line-up shake up will awaken this offense. Biggio is batting lead off, Semien and Gurriel have been bumped down, and Palacios gets a start.
