Analysis:
After playing in a few minor-league spring games without incident, Encarnacion is ready to reprise his role as the Jays' regular DH and likely cleanup hitter. Tooth and oblique issues have prevented him from making any Grapefruit League appearances, but he may take part in the upcoming exhibition games at Olympic Stadium in Montreal.
