PT TOMORROW: AL East—TOR taking Travis to the top

Toronto Blue Jays

Blue Jays manager John Gibbons has hinted broadly that as soon as Devon Travis (2B, TOR) is ready, he will ascend to the top of the Blue Jays’ order. Travis, of course, is just working his way back after shoulder surgery last September.

Given his penchant for taking walks, José Bautista (OF, TOR) hasn’t necessarily been the worst table setter, but the team would clearly prefer Bautista be in position to drive in runs.
