The Blue Jays have been struggling with injuries especially with their starting pitchers as news broke a few days ago that Alek Manoah is done for the season and on top of that Yariel Rodriguez is still out.
According to reports, Rodriguez is set to make a rehab start in triple-A today where he will make 70-75 pitches. Following this game, the Blue Jays will decide if it is time to bring him back to the lineup.
Yariel Rodríguez will start in Triple-A tomorrow. The #BlueJays want to see him reach 70-75 pitches, then it's decision time.
