Pitcher Notes

Team Notes
Blue Jays Stripling is competing to keep his spot in the rotation and one key will be establishing his curveball. Having thrown 70 pitches in his return from the IL on Sunday, Stripling should be able to push deeper against the Astros if he avoids trouble Friday.
Astros Following his first scoreless start of 2021, Urquidy will open the series with Toronto. Urquidy has relied more on his slider than in the past (career-high 21.6% usage), but he threw a season-high 31 changeups Saturday against the Rays.
