We have some injury updates. A lot of not so encouraging news on the pitching front:
Some #BlueJays injury notes via manager Charlie Montoyo:
— Ben Nicholson-Smith (@bnicholsonsmith) June 1, 2021
• George Springer ran the bases & took fly balls today; tomorrow he'll do the same
• Cavan Biggio still day to day
• pitchers Thomas Hatch, Ryan Borucki & Julian Merryweather "not close" to coming back now
Here are today’s lineups. Panik gets another start at 3rd, and McGuire will catch.

We are glad you are here and hope you feel welcome. As a reminder, we have rules. Mostly it’s “don’t be terrible,” but these days it’s also, “please debate about baseball and not the coronavirus or vaccines.” 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. You can Adopt-a-Jay here, and here’s a helpful tutorial on how to post images in the comments.
