Then the door was open and the wind appeared, the candles blew then disappeared.

The Jays look to reap some hits against Justin Grimm (5-4, 5.25). Lefty Mark Buehrle (2-4, 5.06) hopes to establish a cult following among the Blue Jays faithful. First pitch is at 8:05 pm Eastern.

If you have not seen this yet, Munenori Kawasaki made a guest appearance on MLB Network's Intentional Talk.

Some injury updates tweeted by Gregor Chisholm of BlueJays.com...

@gregorMLB: Brett Lawrie is out of a walking boot but there is still no immediate timetable for his return. Still lots of rehab work to do.

@gregorMLB: From earlier, Johnson (blister) had his start pushed back yet another day. He'll now start Monday with Wang going on Sunday.

@gregorMLB: Morrow had a 40-pitch bullpen today, he's scheduled to pitch in a game on Monday. Gibbons wasn't sure if it was for Dunedin or a sim game.

@gregorMLB: Gibbons said that he thinks Morrow will need a max of two rehab starts. Reiterated that Reyes could be two weeks away.

@gregorMLB: Jose Reyes played two innings in a simulated game today. He did some sliding practice after the game, could play for Dunedin on Monday.

@gregorMLB: Sergio Santos threw long toss today. The plan is to throw a side on Tuesday or Wednesday of next week.

@gregorMLB: Drew Hutchison threw live BP today, his last live BP. Scheduled for a simulated game on Tuesday.

@gregorMLB: Kyle Drabek is done with live BPs. He's scheduled to pitch two innings of an intrasquad game early next week. #BlueJays
