Bo Bichette has been one of the best players for the Toronto Blue Jays over the past few years, however, he won't be in the lineup against the Houston Astros due to a neck injury.
According to Sports Illustrated and Fan Nation, Bo Bichette suffered his neck injury amid the Blue Jays' series against the Tampa Bay Rays. For those who may not remember, it was a pretty contentious series with the Rays. The Blue Jays ended up winning the first game by a score of 8-2.
Subsequently, their offense went cold, and it was not a pretty a sight as they lost the next two games 8-2 and 5-1, respectively. However, they brought it together the following game with a massive 9-2 drubbing.
Now that Bichette won't be in the lineup, the Blue Jays have had to make some key lineup changes. According to the Blue Jays' official Twitter account, the lineup will now feature Ernie Clement and Cavan Biggio. These are all players who have been known to make an impact, so Blue Jays fans shouldn't get too worried.
"Hello, Houston"
This will prove to be an interesting game for the Blue Jays. They are playing against an Astros team that has started the season with an abysmal record of 0-4. Meanwhile, the Blue Jays are 2-2 and are still being considered the underdogs in this matchup.
The game will be starting at 8:10 PM Eastern Standard Time. If you want to catch the game, you will be able to do so over on Sportsnet in Canada. Additionally, you can keep it locked to Blue Jays Insider for the latest news and updates from around the baseball world.
