Blue Jays’ Addison Barger: Idle Wednesday

Barger (knee) is out of the lineup for Wednesday’s game against the Phillies. Barger went 1-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in Tuesday’s 10-9 loss to the Phillies but left the contest early with left knee discomfort. With the Blue Jays and Phillies wrapping up their series with a day game after a night game, Barger will unsurprisingly find himself on the bench. With a team off day on tap Thursday, he’ll have two full days to recover from the knee injury before potentially returning to the lineup for Friday’s series opener in Atlanta.
