The Rowdy-less Blue Jays are on the road again, and headed to Baltimore to play once again, the blessed Orioles:
#BlueJays manager Charlie Montoyo texted Tellez upon learning of the Brewers trade: "I told him I'm happy for you, I will miss you but I'm happy for you. It's a fresh start, go crush the National League. That's what my message to him was. I love Rowdy Tellez, as you guys know."

We also have some injury updates:
Blue Jays moving Ryan Borucki (forearm) to 60-day IL is procedural — opens up a spot on the 40-man roster for Thomas Hatch coming off 60-day.

Borucki is eligible to be activated from IL this Saturday. He’s scheduled to throw an inning in a triple-A rehab outing on Wednesday.
Blue Jays manager Charlie Montoyo says Alejandro Kirk is “100 per cent” healthy but will remain on triple-A rehab assignment for now:

"He’s playing every day and getting at-bats, which is only good for him. Trying to get his overall game as good as he can before he comes here."
Here are today’s lineups - what I’m assuming will be pretty close to the usual going forward. McGuire catches this one.
