SEPTEMBER 15 • MLB.COM
Joey Loperfido - On bench Sunday Loperfido (hip) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Mike Wilner of the Toronto Star reports.
Impact The 25-year-old departed Saturday's contest due to left adductor discomfort and will be held out of the starting nine for at least one game. Loperfido will have Monday's team off day to aid in his recovery ahead of Tuesday's series opener at Texas.
SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE
Daulton Varsho - Managing sore shoulder Varsho is out of the lineup for Sunday's game due to shoulder soreness, Mike Wilner of the Toronto Star reports.
Impact It's the first report of the injury for Varsho, but it makes sense as he hasn't been in the lineup since Tuesday against the Mets. The Blue Jays have a scheduled day off Monday, so the outfielder will have another two full days to rest up before Tuesday's series opener against the Rangers.
SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE
Nathan Lukes - Starting again Sunday Lukes is starting in center field and batting in the leadoff spot for Sunday's series finale against the Cardinals.
Impact Lukes will start in the outfield for a fourth straight game Sunday, and the 30-year-old appears to be carving an every day role for himself in the outfield. He's gone 3-for-10 with one triple and three runs scored over the first two games of the series against St. Louis. In 10 major-league appearances this season, Lukes is slashing .342/.395/.474 with four RBI across 43 plate appearances.
SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE
Daulton Varsho - Continues to sit Varsho is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
Impact Varsho will sit for a fourth consecutive game, three of which have come against right-handers. The 28-year-old has gone just 4-for-27 with a 37.9 percent strikeout rate since returning from a two-game absence due to a right shoulder injury in early September. Nathan Lukes will start in center field Sunday and bat in the leadoff spot against Cardinals right-hander Miles Mikolas.
SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE
George Springer - Sitting Sunday Springer is absent from Sunday's lineup against St. Louis.
Impact Springer will begin Sunday's game on the bench after going 0-for-5 with two strikeouts in the Blue Jays' 7-2 win over the Cardinals on Saturday. Addison Barger will start in right field and bat sixth against St. Louis right-hander Miles Mikolas.
SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE
Leo Jimenez - Returns to lineup Jimenez (finger) is starting at second base and batting seventh against St. Louis on Sunday.
Impact Jiminez was set to return from a two-game absence due to a foot injury Saturday, but he was a late scratch due to a finger injury. He appears to be over both issues and will be in action for the series finale. Since Aug. 1, Jiminez is slashing .247/.381/.471 with four home runs, 14 RBI and a 30.5 percent strikeout rate across 105 plate appearances.

Davis Schneider - Ends lengthy power drought Saturday Schneider went 3-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Cardinals.
Impact The 25-year-old utility player took Kyle Gibson deep for a solo shot in the third inning, snapping a 54-game homer drought that stretched back to June 23. Saturday's multi-hit effort was also his first since July 21. Schneider has mostly failed to re-capture the magic of his 35-game debut from 2023, and through 123 contests this season he's slashing a meager .197/.287/.346 with 11 homers, six steals, 42 RBI and 43 runs.
