Ernie Clement is not in the Blue Jays lineup on Monday against the White Sox.

Fantasy Impact: Clement picked up one hit and scored a run in Sunday's loss. Isiah Kiner-Falefa slides over to third base for Toronto.

George Springer is in the starting lineup for the Blue Jays Monday.

Fantasy Impact: Springer will return to the lineup after having Sunday off. He will hit seventh and patrol right field. The 34-year-old is currently hitting .188, with three home runs, and nine RBI this season.

Daulton Varsho went 1-for-5 with a home run and three RBI on Sunday against the Tigers.

Fantasy Impact: Varsho hit a go-ahead home run with two outs in the eighth inning before the lead was eventually blown. It was his 10th long ball on the season.

Yusei Kikuchi allowed five runs on eight hits over three innings on Sunday against the Tigers.

Fantasy Impact: Kikuchi did not record a strikeout in the outing. He'll look to bounce back next time out.

Justin Turner is not in the Blue Jays lineup on Sunday against the Tigers.

Fantasy Impact: Turner went hitless in Saturday's loss. Daniel Vogelbach will serve as the designated hitter for Toronto in the series finale.

Fantasy Impact: Jansen will return to the lineup hitting second and starting behind the plate. The 29-year-old is hitting .309, with five home runs, and 13 RBI this season.

Jose Berrios delivered a solid outing, allowing two earned runs on seven hits and zero walks while striking out five over seven innings in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Tigers.

Fantasy Impact: Despite his commendable performance, Berrios was saddled with the loss, moving his record to 5-4. His season ERA holds steady at an impressive 2.94, complemented by a 1.10 WHIP. However, his 7.1 K/9 continues to be a concern for fantasy managers looking for strikeouts. Berrios's ability to limit walks and maintain a low ERA makes him a reliable option, but his lower strikeout totals might not cater to all fantasy formats. His consistent performance, evidenced by a solid strikeout-to-walk ratio and a sustainable BABIP, suggests continued success, albeit with limited upside in strikeout-heavy leagues.

Fantasy Impact: Schneider is back after taking a seat on the bench for regular rest Friday night, patrolling left field and batting leadoff against the Tigers Saturday.

Alek Manoah allowed four earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out four over 4 2/3 innings in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Tigers.

Fantasy Impact: This outing marks a slight deviation from his otherwise solid start to the season, pushing his ERA up to 3.97 and his WHIP to 1.06. Despite a strong 9.1 K/9 rate and a decent 2.88 strikeout-to-walk ratio, Manoah's FIP of 5.68 suggests he might be benefiting from some good fortune, evidenced by a notably low .193 BABIP. Fantasy managers should be cautious, as his underlying metrics hint at potential regression, especially if his BABIP normalizes.

Isiah Kiner-Falefa made a notable impact in the Blue Jays' 9-1 victory over the Tigers, going 2-for-4 with a triple, a home run, one RBI, and scoring once.

Fantasy Impact: This performance is a bright spot in what has been a fairly average season for Kiner-Falefa, who is hitting .255 with three home runs and 13 RBI over 48 games. His ability to contribute extra-base hits in this game could hint at potential upside, but his overall power numbers and limited walk rate (.048) suggest that expectations should remain tempered. Fantasy managers should view him as a depth option, useful primarily in deeper leagues or as a fill-in during hot streaks or favorable matchups. His versatility in the infield also adds a layer of value for roster flexibility.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. went 2-for-5 with a home run and a double as the Blue Jays trounced the Tigers 9-1.

Fantasy Impact: His performance included driving in two runs and scoring twice himself, showcasing his power and run-producing capabilities. This game is a positive indicator for Guerrero Jr.'s fantasy managers, as it reflects his ability to capitalize on scoring opportunities. His season batting average now stands at .282, and with 24 RBI and 5 homers, he remains a solid fantasy option, especially in leagues that value power hitting. His consistent contact and moderate power numbers suggest that while he may not lead the league, he'll be a reliable source of fantasy points.

Kevin Gausman dazzled against the Tigers, allowing just one earned run on three hits and two walks while striking out 10 over six innings in Thursday's 9-1 victory.

Fantasy Impact: This performance was a refreshing display of dominance for Gausman, who has had a rocky season with a 4.47 ERA and 1.43 WHIP over his first 10 starts. His 10 strikeouts in this outing highlight his ability to still miss bats at a high rate, evidenced by his season K/9 of 9.9. The significant reduction in hits and runs allowed in this game could be a turning point for Gausman, potentially signaling a return to form. Fantasy managers should consider this performance encouraging, especially given his solid 3.16 FIP and 4.08 K/BB ratio, suggesting some bad luck with a .370 BABIP. This outing might be the spark Gausman needs to regain consistency and become a more reliable option in fantasy rotations.
