Blue Jays' George Springer: Goes deep against South Siders
Rotowire
Springer went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional RBI during the Blue Jays' 12-4 loss to the White Sox on Friday.
Springer got the Blue Jays on the board in the third inning on a fielder's choice before taking Trevor Richards deep to left field in the fifth. It was the 10th home run of the season for Springer, who played defense for the first time this season with a start in left field. That could open more opportunities at DH for catchers Alejandro Kirk and Brandon Valenzuela, or even rookie Sean Keys, as Toronto searches for a spark on offense.

Blue Jays' George Springer: Making first start since June 30
Rotowire
Springer will start at designated hitter and bat cleanup in Wednesday's game against the Giants.
Toronto reinstated Springer from the family medical emergency list Monday, but he was held out of the lineup for the club's first two games of its series in San Francisco. Springer will return to the lineup for the finale in what will be his first start since June 30, and he'll bat somewhere other than the leadoff spot for the first time all season while manager John Schneider sticks with Ernie Clement atop the batting order for the third straight contest. The arrangement won't necessarily be a permanent one, but slotting behind Vladimir Guerrero in the order could prove beneficial for Springer, who has struggled to a .221/.308/.373 batting line over 276 plate appearances on the season.

Rotowire
The Blue Jays transferred Springer (personal) from the paternity list to the family medical emergency list Saturday, Hazel Mae of Sportsnet reports.

The Blue Jays aren't expecting Springer to miss much further action, as Mae relays that he's expected to rejoin the Blue Jays for their series in San Francisco during the upcoming week. Vladimir Guerrero and Sean Keys will likely share designated-hitter duties while Springer remains away.

Blue Jays' George Springer: Pilfers two bags in win
Rotowire
Springer went 0-for-3 with two stolen bases in Wednesday's win over the Red Sox.
The Blue Jays evidently liked seeing Mickey Gasper working behind the plate for Boston, as they went 5-for-5 on steal attempts against him during the game. Springer's thefts both came in the third inning after he was hit by a Jake Bennett pitch, but he was left stranded at third base by a Kazuma Okamoto groundout. Springer has just six stolen bases on the season to go along with a .212/.308/.369 slash line, seven home runs, 19 RBI and 22 runs in 52 contests, but three of those steals have come in the last two games.
