Game 150: Walker Ready?

Pete Walker got shelled in his final AAA rehab start and gave up three runs and four hits in 4.1 innings in his only AL start since April. Since then, he's allowed one run and three hits over 6.2 relief IP, but he hasn't worked in over a week. At the racetrack, we'd say he might be "short" of peak condition.

Nate Cornejo kept the Jays off balance for nine innings ten days ago, and battled gamely against the Yankees in his latest. I don't expect another shutout, but he is the favourite in this pitching matchup. We'll see if the Toronto hitters have made adjustments.

Bobby Kielty and Greg Myers are sitting this one out against a righty in the latest lineup configuration.
