Blue Jays' Devon Travis: Makes immediate impact in return from DL
Travis went 1-for-4 in his season debut on Wednesday against the Yankees.
Analysis:
Travis hit out of the eighth spot and singled in his second at-bat before scoring all the way from first on a two-run double by Ryan Goins. Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said he would give Travis a couple of days to see how he looks before moving him up in the batting order. The expectation is that it's only a matter of time before Travis becomes the regular leadoff hitter, and that could happen as soon as Friday night's game against the Red Sox.
