What Time Is Yankees vs. Blue Jays and Where Is It Played?
The game begins at 1 p.m. Eastern time, 10 a.m. Pacific time, at TD Ballpark in Dunedin, Florida, the Blue Jays’ spring training home. The Grapefruit League contest marks another early look at roster battles as both clubs ramp up toward the regular season.
The Yankees are 2-2 in Grapefruit League play. The Blue Jays are 1-2 after dropping a 4-3 decision to the New York Mets Monday at TD Ballpark. José BerrÃos, the Toronto pitcher most frequently mentioned in trade rumors, got the start for the Blue Jays, lasting 2 2/3 innings, giving up two earned runs on three hits with two strikeouts and a walk.
The Yankees on Monday cruised past the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-2. Designated hitter Ben Rice appeared to be in mid-season form, driving in two runs on two hits in three at-bats with a walk.
Will Warren vs. Grant Rogers: Starting Pitching Matchup
The Blue Jays will get their first look of the spring at 24-year-old righty Grant Rogers, rated the No. 22 prospect in their system overall by FanGraphs.
Drafted in the 11th round by the Blue Jays in 2023 out of McNeese State for a $150,000 signing bonus, Rogers strikes an imposing figure on the mound, but reaches only about 95 mph on his four-seam fastball. His wide-ranging repertoire also includes a splitter, sinker, slider, changeup and cutter.
Warren started 33 games for the Yankees in his rookie season last year, posting a 4.44 ERA with 171 strikeouts in 162 1/3 innings. Tuesday’s game will be his first outing of the spring.
