Game Threat: The Mike Bolsinger Experience, Clevelanders (17-14) @ Blue Jays (12-20)
Mike Bolsinger is going to be throwing the ball to Mike Ohlman tonight. In a major league game. It’s May.
News and Scuttlebutt
Some big news for the American League East, as stud closer Zach Britton will be sidelined for the next couple of months due to injury. Can the Orioles survive without him? They certainly couldn’t in last year’s wild card game! Heyo!
Troy Tulowitzki may play in rehab games this weekend if progress continues. Tulo seemed comfortable hitting & fielding earlier #BlueJays
Boy oh boy, hurry back, Tulo. Just wait ’till you see tonight’s lineup.
Aaron Sanchez threw 60 pitches at #BlueJays extended ST today. No pain. Assuming he feels good tomorrow he'll be on track to start Sunday
It seems the Mike Bolsinger experience won’t have to go on for very long, so long as Aaron Sanchez’s fingers are finally good to go.
