To kick off an 11-game stretch that could tell us a lot about how the Toronto Blue Jays stack up against their AL East rivals this year, the Jays will host the New York Yankees for a four-game set. The 23-19 Bronx Bombers are currently in fourth place in the division, ahead of only the Boston Red Sox.

Probable starting pitchers

  • Desperately in need of a strong start, Alek Manoah is set to make the ninth start of his 2023 campaign. The 25-year-old is coming off of two consecutive losses in which he struggled mightily to not only get batters out, but keep them off the bases. His last start against the Yankees on April 22nd was a dominant seven shutout inning performance in which he struck out five batters and walked one. In his career, he has a 1.93 ERA with 43 strikeouts and only two home runs allowed against the Yankees in seven starts.
  • For the Yankees, 31-year-old Jimmy Cordero will make his first career "start", functioning as an opener. The right-hander has made 15 relief appearances for the club so far and has been lights out. In 16 innings of work, he has a 2.81 ERA, 2.92 FIP and an ERA+ of 156, striking out 17 and walking just three. The plan appears to be for 25-year-old Jhony Brito to be the "follower", relieiving Cordero after an inning or two. Brito has a 5.81 ERA in eight appearances and 31 innings to kick off his big league career.
