After salvaging a hard-fought win against the formidable Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday, the Toronto Blue Jays will once again face the Kansas City Royals to finish off their current home stand. Last week, the Blue Jays (14-15) dropped three of four by the slimmest of margins to the Royals (17-12) as they look to exact some revenge on them this week to make up some ground in the AL East.

Probable starting pitchers

  • The Blue Jays will be sending Cuban sensation Yariel Rodríguez to the mound. Still looking for his first MLB win, Rodríguez had been solid for the Jays in three starts, pitching to a 3.86 ERA with 15 strikeouts in 11.2 innings of work. However, he is coming off his worst outing so far this season when he gave up 3 runs on 6 hits in just 4 innings pitched against the Royals last week. Hopefully this time around, Rodríguez will have the upper hand on what is now a familiar foe to him.
  • The Royals will counter with former second-round pick Jonathan Bowlan. Bowlan has only just been recalled from Triple-A Omaha to make the start. In four starts with Omaha, he had posted a stellar 3-1 record with a 2.57 ERA and 1.10 WHIP with 21:strikeouts in 21 innings pitched. Bowlan will be looking for his first win of his big league career after making a two-game cameo appearance with the Royals last season.
