Pillar is batting sixth and playing center field Thursday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

The center fielder was removed from the leadoff spot and hit the bench as the Blue Jays revamped their order Wednesday. Pillar probably will occupy sixth or lower moving forward, which makes his occasionally useful power-speed mix a little less valuable, though if this talented but erratic lineup gets going, he could benefit regardless. Of course, he'll need to turn things around in June, in which he's batting .173/.215/.267 in 79 plate appearances.
