Blue Jays Series Preview: Rays not usually a nice opponent for slumping teams
The good news for the Toronto Blue Jays is that they play far fewer video games in opposition to American League East rivals this yr due to the brand new balanced schedule.
The dangerous news is that they’re at the moment taking part in a prolonged stretch of divisional video games – and it’s not going notably properly.
The ice-cold Blue Jays wrap up 11 consecutive contests in opposition to AL East opponents with a four-game sequence on the highway in opposition to the MLB-leading Tampa Bay Rays.

Toronto is coming off a 1-6 week at house in opposition to the Baltimore Orioles and New York Yankees, dropping the Blue Jays into final place — and out of a playoff spot — in the perfect division in baseball.
The Blue Jays are actually 6-11 in opposition to the AL East.
What’s extra, the Rays are 21-4 at Tropicana Field, the second-best 25-game house file since 1901 behind the 1978 Boston Red Sox (22-3).
Here’s a take a look at the Blue Jays-Rays sequence.

The bullpen additionally hasn’t been good. Closer Jordan Romano gave up a game-tying three-run homer with two out within the eighth on Saturday en path to a 6-5 loss in 10 innings and Yimi Garcia allowed 5 runs within the 11th inning on Sunday in a painful-to-watch 8-3 loss.
As if that’s not dangerous sufficient, the Blue Jays are making errors in routine conditions.
Whit Merrifield was picked off after a game-tying single within the 10th on Sunday, Cavan Biggio was caught stealing when he slid previous second base within the eighth, whereas supervisor John Schneider visited the mound within the sixth on Saturday after pitching coach Pete Walker had already completed so, forcing the Blue Jays to take away an efficient Manoah.
The Blue Jays talked all spring about eager to play good basic baseball. They’re not delivering.
Latest on the Rays
After tying or shedding their previous three sequence, the Rays (34-14) took two of three from the NL Central-leading Milwaukee Brewers this weekend in Tampa.
The Rays missed an opportunity at a sweep with a 6-4 loss on Sunday.
Former Ray Willy Adames hit a solo homer off opener Jalen Beeks and ex-Jay Rowdy Tellez additionally went deep for Milwaukee.

The Rays are the category of the league regardless of seeing two starters – Jeffrey Springs and Drew Rasmussen – undergo season-ending accidents.
Another starter, Tyler Glasnow, hasn’t began but this season as he makes his approach again from an indirect damage. He’s anticipated to make his season debut subsequent weekend after rehab begin on Sunday.
Shutout Streak
Bassitt comes into Monday’s recreation having not allowed a run in his previous 27 innings – the third-longest shutout streak in Blue Jays historical past.
Dave Stieb had 34 consecutive innings of scoreless ball in 1988-89, whereas Roger Clemens had 33 in 1998.

Season Series
The Blue Jays took two of three from the visiting Rays in April, snapping Tampa’s season-opening 13-game win streak. Berrios and Kikuchi each had sturdy outings in wins, whereas Manoah struggled in a series-ending 8-1 loss.
Cy Guy?
McClanahan, Wednesday’s starter for Tampa, appears to be like to be a robust candidate for the Cy Young.
He is the MLB chief in wins, fourth in ERA and has 68 strikeouts in opposition to 25 walks. He’s coming off a 1-0 win over Milwaukee on Friday when he allowed simply six hits, struck out seven and walked one in seven innings.
The 2022 All-Star Game starter for the AL, McClanahan held the Jays to 1 run on 4 hits in six innings in Tampa’s lone win in opposition to Toronto earlier this season.
Leadoff Lift
One optimistic this weekend for the Blue Jays was the play of leadoff man George Springer.
The outfielder, who received off to a sluggish begin this season and in addition was felled by a viral an infection, had three consecutive two-hit video games.
