Jansen isn't in Toronto's lineup for the first game of Thursday's doubleheader against the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Jansen is 3-for-13 with an RBI across his last four games, and he'll get a breather for the first game of Thursday's twin bill. Alejandro Kirk will take over behind the dish and bat eighth.

Jansen is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Jansen went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 7-3 win over the A's.
EDGE Analysis
The backstop took Hogan Harris deep in the third inning, giving Jansen four homers in his last eight games and 10 on the year. He's batting .286 (8-for-28) over that stretch with a .786 SLG, adding two doubles, five runs and six RBI into the mix, and with Alejandro Kirk (hand) sidelined at least until the end of the month, Jansen should continue seeing a full-time workload for the Jays.

Jansen is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game versus Texas.

Jansen went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Friday's 2-1 win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
He supplied all the offense Kevin Gausman and the Toronto bullpen would need when he took Martin Perez deep in the fifth inning. Jansen has gone yard three times in the last two games, giving him nine homers and 30 RBI in only 40 games this season, but his .216/.276/.470 slash line has so far lagged behind last season's career-best performance.

Jansen went 3-for-4 with two homers, two RBI and two runs scored in Thursday's loss to the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Jansen provided Toronto's only offense Thursday, launching solo homers off Tyler Wells in the third and fifth innings while collecting three hits in total on the afternoon. The catcher had seen his average dip below .200 coming into Thursday's matchup after being held hitless in each of his previous three games. He's now up to eight long balls on the season and brought his average up to .214 with the three-hit performance.

Jansen is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Jansen was activated from the 10-day injured list Tuesday after recovering from a left groin strain, and he went 0-for-5 in his return to the lineup. He'll get a day of rest Wednesday with Alejandro Kirk handling catching duties and hitting fifth in Jansen's absence.
