The Toronto Blue Jays aim to secure a series win against the Kansas City Royals in their rubber match on Thursday after a 3-0 victory. Currently at 65-69, the team sits four games out of a playoff spot. In response to injuries and roster challenges, the Blue Jays have made several adjustments, including recalling Sean Keys, who has excelled in Triple-A with a.370 batting average in August. Keys is expected to play in the outfield for Buffalo this week, as his power potential could bolster the Blue Jays' offense during the final stretch of the season.
- •Blue Jays win 3-0 against Royals on Wednesday.
- •Toronto is four games behind the final AL wild card position.
- •Sean Keys has slashed.370/.475/.679 in August for Buffalo.
- •Keys may transition to the outfield to increase his chances of returning to the majors.
- •Active rosters will expand from 26 to 28 players soon.
