The Jays finish their run of games against winning teams with three in Yankee Stadium. After this series the Jays play teams with losing records to finish the season. The Yankees have won four in a row and with the Jays taking two games in Tampa, the Rays lead in the division is down to four games.

SCHEDULE

Friday: Fluharty vs Schlittler

Saturday: Cease vs Weathers

Sunday: Soriano vs Rodon

The Jays have announced that Mason Fluharty will be the opener tonight. The Jays could activate Spencer Arrighetti before the game tonight and he could play a part in the pitching lineup. If Arrighetti is activated then the most logical player to go is Brendan Cellucci. At least temporarily Cellucci could join the list of players who were major leaguers but never played.

This series sees two repeat matchups from last weekend. The Jays opener plus bullpen won in the Schlittler game although the Jays beat the Yankees bullpen, not Schlittler. Then the Sunday matchup last week was a pitching battle that had to go to extra innings before the Yankees won.
