This will be the first time the Blue Jays and Rangers meet since the Blue Jays swept the Rangers in dramatic fashion which is now known as the Donaldson dash.
Speaking of Josh Donaldson, him and Troy Tulowitzki will return to the Blue Jays (21-26) lineup on Friday night. The Rangers (24-23) started slowly out of the gates much like the Blue Jays, but a 10 game win streak propelled Texas back into 2nd in the AL West. Despite the big push, they still trail the 31-16 Houston Astros by 7.0 games.
As we all know, the Blue Jays started 2-11.
