Tanner Scott perfect in earning 13th save

The Blue Jays have been careful to mix in off days for Springer in an effort to keep him healthy for the remainder of the season. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. will serve as the club’s designated hitter in his absence while Sean Keys draws a start at first base and will bat sixth against White Sox’ right-hander Sean Burke on Sunday afternoon in Toronto.

The 35-year-old has been shelved since June 27 due to inflammation in his right knee. He’s going to need at least a few games against live pitching before he’s an option to rejoin the Mariners. Barring any setbacks, he should be ready to go at some point during the upcoming week.

The 36-year-old southpaw had been designated for assignment last week. Coulombe has struggled to a 4.50 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and a cringe-inducing 10/15 K/BB ratio over 22 innings with the Red Sox this season. He’s now free to explore options on the open market.

It appears to be nothing more than a routine day of rest for the 24-year-old second baseman. Sam Antonacci will cover second base in his absence while Randal Grichuk draws a start in left field and will bat seventh against Blue Jays’ right-hander Trey Yesavage.

Young’s homer off Logan Webb gave the Mariners their only runs in regulation before Julio Rodríguez won the game with a sac fly in the 10th. It was Young’s 12th homer this season. His .254/.313/.400 line is hardly eyepopping, but for a 22-year-old playing in T-Mobile half of the time, it’s really quite impressive and bodes well for him being a quality regular for the next 10 or 12 years.

The earned runs came in the sixth on solo homers from Rafael Devers and Willy Adames, which checked in at just 339 and 358 feet, respectively. Apart from that, Woo was really good in striking out seven. The unearned run was especially unearned. Technically, it scored on a Luke Raley error, but Luis Arraez only reached in the first place on what should have been a Cole Young error but was deemed a single because that’s just how the league likes it. Woo will pitch in Texas next week, which makes for an even more favorable matchup than most of his home starts.

Webb had a shutout going until Cole Young homered with two on and two out in the seventh. That made the game a 3-3 tie, so Webb remained winless in three starts this month. He’s allowed four homers in three outings in July after surrendering just five in his previous 14 starts. He’ll face the Angels next.

Bazzana also walked twice before his walkoff shot off Dennis Santana in the bottom of the ninth gave the Guardians a doubleheader sweep. Throw in his RBI triple in the matinee, and it was a big day for a rookie hitting just .158/.241/.197 in his previous 19 games. He’s at .253/.337/.410 overall in 67 big-league games.

Serving as the Guardians’ 27th man, Allen allowed six hits, walked three and struck out three in his second appearance this year. It’s the first time in 98 games this year that the Guardians have needed to look beyond their usual five starters. Allen will now head back to Triple-A and wait for a more significant role to open up.

Curtis came up big in his major league debut, only to watch the bullpen give up five runs behind him. As the 27th man for the doubleheader, he’ll return to Triple-A now, but at least he’s on the 40-man for the first time and in great position to get another look in the near future.
