Saunders (hamstring) is out of the lineup Friday against Minnesota, Barry Davis of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Saunders sitting out the second day in a row, Toronto will head into Friday's contest with an outfield of Melvin Upton, Kevin Pillar, and Jose Bautista. The club has yet to say the severity of Saunders's injury, so he should still be considered day-to-day at this point in time.
