The Toronto Blue Jays are a busy bunch ahead of Game 1 of their four-game series against the Boston Red Sox. Some Blue Jays news regarding George Springer has also emerged on August 10th.
Monday night’s game launches a gauntlet that is the month of August. Toronto will play the Red Sox for four straight nights, followed by the New York Yankees, Tampa Bay Rays, the Yankees again, the Kansas City Royals, and the Seattle Mariners.
Coming out of August still in the middle of a Wild Card position will be nothing less than a miracle.

Ahead of the first game of the series, the Blue Jays took to social media to announce their starting lineup.
Included in the lineup was Springer.
Springer was held out of the starting lineup for a couple of games. He was available off the bench during the Philadelphia Phillies series.
Springer is a 36-year-old designated hitter and outfielder. The 6-foot-1, 220-pound slugger was originally a first-round draft selection of the Houston Astros.
Ahead of the game, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reported on Max Scherzer’s unique music choice while throwing in the bullpen.
“‘Top Gun Anthem’ is currently playing in the Blue Jays‘ bullpen while Max Scherzer throws. Great ambiance here at the Dome,” Matheson wrote in the afternoon on Monday, August 10th.
