Pearce went 1-for-3 with a three run home run during Thursday's win over Seattle.

EDGE Analysis

The blast was Pearce's fourth of the season, and he also sports an underwhelming .192/.247/.359 slash line. Despite his poor production, Pearce is still receiving regular playing time. There is potential for him to kick-start a hot stretch and turn his season around, but taking a wait-and-see approach is likely best.

Pearce is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Indians, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

After a hot start to the month that saw him knock three homers in two games, Pearce is hitless over his last three games (0-for-9). He'll take a seat to clear his mind as Ezequiel Carrera draws the start in left field Tuesday.

Pearce is not in the lineup against the Rays on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Pearce will take a seat after going 0-for-4 with a strikeout in Friday's series opener, though he may be available in a pinch-hitting capacity. The 34-year-old seemed to have finally found his stroke earlier this week, hitting three home runs and knocking in five RBI over two games against the Yankees, but gives way to Ezequiel Carrera in left field Saturday.

Pearce went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run during Wednesday's loss to the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

After blasting two home runs against the Yankees on Tuesday, it was quite the series for Pearce. However, it's been an otherwise underwhelming start to the season. His .230/.277/.393 slash line and six RBI hardly move the fantasy needle, and Pearce has only started 15 of 28 games.

Pearce is out of the lineup Monday against the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

Pearce had received starts in left field in three of the last four games -- including two nods against right-handed pitchers -- but after going 2-for-9 in those contests, he'll head back to the bench while Ezequiel Carrera rejoins the lineup. The two players are expected to remain in a timeshare until Pearce, who has yet to homer in 57 plate appearances this season, starts to flash the power he exhibited with the Orioles and Rays the past three years.

Pearce will start in left field and bat sixth in the order Sunday against the Rays, Hazel Mae of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's the third start in four games for Pearce, with two of those starts coming against right-handed pitching. For the time being, it appears Pearce may have supplanted Ezequiel Carrera as the primary option in left field, but the situation figures to remain fairly fluid. Pearce is still slashing just .176/.222/.176 on the season, so he'll probably need to put together several quality at-bats in a row before those in deeper mixed leagues can feel comfortable grabbing him off the waiver wire.

Pearce is out of Wednesday's lineup against the Red Sox, Sportsnet's Arden Zwelling reports.

EDGE Analysis

With righty Rick Porcello on the hill for Boston, the Blue Jays will start with Pearce on the bench and Ezequiel Carrera starting in left field and hitting second. Pearce is off to a rough start to the season, slashing .162/.205/.162 in 37 at-bats, but he remains a huge threat whenever a lefty is on the mound for the opposition.

Pearce is not in the lineup Thursday against the Orioles, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pearce was expected to play a big role in the Blue Jays offense this season, but he's only posted a .182 batting average in six games played. Manager John Gibbons will have Ezequiel Carrera take over in left field in an effort to get the bats going for the struggling squad.

Pearce is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays, Enrique Rojas of ESPN Deportes reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Justin Smoak turning in some quality at-bats in the early going, he appears to have secured primary starting duties at first base for the time being, leaving Pearce to scrounge for most of his playing time in left field. With Pearce sitting in favor of Ezequiel Carrera for the second time in three days, it looks like Pearce will have to settle for a part-time role until he's able to create for separation in the job battle.

Pearce is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

It's likely just a regular off day for Pearce, who is still recovering from an elbow injury suffered this spring and has started the year on a 3-for-13 clip. The 33-year-old could be an attractive play against his former team this weekend, he has 10 home runs and a .264 average against Tampa Bay in his career. Justin Smoak starts at first in his stead.
