    • Takes batting practice Saturday
      Yoshida (thumb) took live batting practice in Boston on Saturday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

      Advice: Yoshida was able to take another step in his recovery from the strained left thumb that has sidelined him since May 1. The outfielder said Saturday that he is "over the injury and it's a matter of building up," according to Abraham. Yoshida will likely need to embark on a multi-start rehab assignment prior to being activated from the injured list. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:37 am

    • Masataka Yoshida (thumb) takes BP on Saturday
      Masataka Yoshida (thumb) progressed to taking batting practice on Saturday at Fenway Park.

      Advice: Yoshida progressed to taking on-field batting practice for the first time since landing on the injured list back in early May with a left thumb issue. The 30-year-old slugger should be ready for a minor league rehab assignment at some point in the coming weeks, if not sooner. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:58 am

    • Back in lineup Saturday
      Varsho (illness) will start in center field and bat second Saturday versus the Pirates.

      Advice: Varsho will return to the lineup after missing Friday's 5-3 win due to food poisoning. The 27-year-old has struggled to a .157 average with seven extra-base hits, including four homers, over his last 18 contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:55 am
       
    • Daulton Varsho back in lineup Saturday vs. Pirates
      Daulton Varsho (illness) returned to the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Pirates.

      Advice: Varsho is back in center field and batting second on Saturday after missing Friday’s 14-inning marathon due to food poisoning. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:36 am
       
    • Sitting versus southpaw
      Kepler will sit Saturday versus the Astros.

      Advice: Kepler will take a seat as Minnesota faces left-hander Framber Valdez on Saturday. Manuel Margot will replace Kepler in right field and bat leadoff against Houston. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:06 am
       
    • Battling food poisoning
      Varsho was unavailable for Friday's game against the Pirates due to food poisoning, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

      Advice: Varsho's absence Friday shielded him from facing left-hander Bailey Falter, but the Blue Jays have now revealed they held the 27-year-old out due to illness rather than an unfavorable matchup. Davis Schneider moved from second base to left field Friday to cover for Varsho, and he may continue to do so if Varsho's condition doesn't improve Saturday. Rotowire.com Friday, 8:53 pm
       
    • Daulton Varsho sits with food poisoning on Friday
      Daulton Varsho was held out of the Blue Jays’ starting lineup on Friday night due to food poisoning.

      Advice: That’s the reason that the 27-year-old never made an appearance despite a 14-inning marathon contest against the Pirates. He’s considered day-to-day though his status for Saturday remains up in the air at this point. Rotoworld Friday, 8:27 pm
       
    • Scheduled for BP
      Manager Alex Cora said Friday that Yoshida (thumb) is expected to take batting practice Saturday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Yoshida began hitting off a tee Friday and will take his next step toward returning from a strained left thumb. A timetable for return has yet to be established, but Yoshida seems to be well on his way to reinstatement. Rotowire.com Friday, 1:18 pm

    • Out against lefty
      Varsho is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Pirates.

      Advice: With Pittsburgh sending southpaw Bailey Falter to the mound, the lefty-hitting Varsho will retreat to the bench. Davis Schneider will move to left field and bat leadoff while Kevin Kiermaier and George Springer round out Toronto's outfield. Rotowire.com Friday, 12:09 pm
