The Blue Jays have been having quite a few injuries problems lately with multiple players dealing with problems yesterday including Max Scherzer, Bo Bichette and George Springer.

The Blue Jays are set to take on the New York Yankees for Canada Day and announce some interesting roster moves as they have decided to option Jonatan Clase and call up Leo Jimenez.

The reasoning behind the move is apparently because Jimenez has more experience as an infielder than Clase and since Bichette is still out today, the Blue Jays decided to call him.

Jimenez gives Blue Jays more infield depth after Bo Bichette was scratched yesterday with knee discomfort.

The Blue Jays also announced the starting lineup for this afternoon in which they have Jimenez already starting at shortstop for Toronto on Canada Day which is quite the experience.

Celebrating #CanadaDay with all of you
Hopefully Bichette's injury is not too serious and he will be back before the all-star game.
The Blue Jays have a lot of young players in their lineup today but hopefully they will still be able to get a win aginast the first place Yankees.
