Blue Jays' George Springer: Sitting down Friday

Springer isn't in Toronto's lineup for Friday's game versus the Twins.

After going 2-for-14 with a homer and three RBI during the Blue Jays' four-game series against Boston, Springer will take a seat for Friday's series opener in Minneapolis. Addison Barger will patrol right field while Springer rests, moving Ernie Clement to third base and opening up shortstop for Leo Jimenez.
