The Toronto Blue Jays (13-15) start a three-game series against the Pittsburgh Pirates (10-8) at PNC Park this weekend. The Jays are three games back in the loss column of the Yankees and Orioles in the AL East while the Bucs are tied with the Cubs for the NL Central basement and are 9.5 games back of the surprising Milwaukee Brewers.

Friday @ 7:05 pm ET - RHP Brandon Morrow (1-2, 6.04) vs. RHP Gerrit Cole (2-2, 3.18).
