Blue Jays transitioning back to a 5-man rotation with Eric Lauer in bullpen per John Schneider

With three hits today, Bo Bichette has 175, more than anyone else in baseball.

Tommy Nance entering the game. He's seeking his first MLB save. (Hoffman & Seranthony believed down today after pitching 2x in a row)

Looking back, Chris Bassitt wishes he'd gotten Ke'Bryan Hayes to open the 7th: “I’m more so just mad that I didn’t get that out. I feel like I cost us the game ... I could have gotten through the 7th there & set us up a lot better. I know our bullpen is really worn down."

Chris Bassitt said he & fellow Blue Jays starters want & need to do a better job of covering innings to help lessen the toll on the team's bullpen. "I know there's probably a lot of hatred, so to speak, on the bullpen, but I mean those guys are tired."

Reds news today: starter Nick Lodolo scratched because of illness. Scott Barlow to start on what’s now a bullpen day.

Anthony Santander is nearing a rehab assignment that could begin Tuesday with triple-A Buffalo Santander will travel with Blue Jays to New York this weekend to continue his build up and get more reps hitting right-handed Santander will get at least five games on rehab

Anthony Santander caught up with me and Ben Nicholson-Smith pre-game — he says his shoulder injury turned out to be much worse than he expected it to be when he initially went on IL. He thought he'd be out for only 3-4 weeks. He's now missed over three months.

Bo Bichette on friendship with Vlad Guerrero Jr: (1/2) “ it’s probably the strongest it’s ever been. We both have struggled, and we both have handled it well from a personal relationship standpoint. I think there’s even more respect now as human beings with how…”

“They were relaying (pitches).. they're good at it. Major League Baseball knows the Yankees are good when they have something. Maybe I'm the only one that's going to say it publicly, but we have to do a better job of making sure we're not giving anything away.” - John Schneider
