Griffin Jax - Goes five innings in second start Jax did not factor into the decision Wednesday against the Blue Jays, allowing four hits and four walks over five scoreless innings. He struck out one.

Impact In two outings since moving into Tampa Bay's rotation, Jax has allowed just two earned runs across nine innings. While he managed to make it through five innings Wednesday, Jax was ultimately stuck with a no-decision as the Rays would fall to Toronto in 10 innings. Overall, Jax sports a 3.91 ERA with a 1.48 WHIP and 18:14 K:BB across 23 innings this year. Assuming he remains in the rotation, Jax would line up for a home matchup with the Orioles in his next outing.

Nick Fortes - Receiving break Wednesday Fortes is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.

Impact Fortes will get a break from playing on the synthetic turf in Toronto after going 1-for-4 while catching nine of 10 innings in Tuesday's 7-6 win. Hunter Feduccia will replace Fortes behind the dish in the series finale.

Chandler Simpson - Back in starting nine Wednesday Simpson (leg) will start in left field and bat leadoff Wednesday against the Blue Jays, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.

Impact The Rays held Simpson out for Tuesday's 7-6 win so that he could receive more time to recover from left leg cramps, which cropped up during Monday's series opener. The day off appears to have helped resolve the issue, as Simpson will step back into his usual spot in the outfield and in the batting order. Tampa Bay is hopeful that the missed start won't disrupt Simpson's rhythm at the plate; since the start of May, Simpson has hit .316 with three stolen bases, eight runs and six RBI in 10 games.
