Toronto Blue Jays star first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. will miss the team’s opener against the Houston Astros due to soreness in his right hand. Guerrero Jr. took a 97 mph Gerrit Cole fastball off his fingers during the Blue Jays 8-1 loss to the New York Yankees Sunday night.

Well, at least he was economical.

With the Blue Jays trailing the Astros 3-2 in the seventh inning on Wednesday night in Toronto, manager John Schneider went to reliever Jose Cuas, who provided anything but relief.

The 30-year-old right-hander faced four batters, threw just three pitches, allowed two inherited runners to score, hit two batters and, simply put, had one bad outing.



Cuas intentionally walked the first batter he faced, Yordan Alvarez, given the Astros’ slugger had already hit a two-run double and two-run homer in the game.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

Virginia fans of The Young and the Restless have asked where Elena Dawson (Brytni Sarpy) has been. She has not been seen or mentioned in Genoa City for quite a while. There is nothing online about Sarpy's status, and Y&R spoilers for next week do not mention the character, so fans wonder if she has been let go.
